I'm trying this specifically with the cybercash module. When I just do ./configure --with-cybercash=/path/to/mck, it works (well, it gets thru configure and make anyway). ./configure --with-cybercash=/path/to/mck,shared and ./configure --with-cybercash=shared,/path/to/mck both don't work. Is Cybercash not something that can be compiled as a shared object? Rasmus Lerdorf wrote:
That's not allowing me to simply dl() an SO file, because I don't have the SO file to start with - that's what I was trying to get at. If I have to reconfigure everything, there's not much point, I don't think. Unless I'm missing something obvious. I'd like to be able to simply have an SO file I can dl() without recompiling. Or are you saying that that configure statement WILL create an SO file that can be dl()ed later, without recompiling PHP?
Exactly. When you do ./configure --with-foo=shared; make then modules/foo.so will appear magically and you can dl() that or load it using "extension=foo.so" in your php.ini. You don't have to recompile PHP. -Rasmus
