Re: Supporting version specific INI files as well as SAPI specific INI files.

I've attached the changes that have been requested. The idea is that you can have settings which are from global (not version specific) to the exact PHP version. Including -dev releases. php [major [.minor [.release [ extra]]]] -sapi.ini or SOFTWARE\\PHP[\\major [.minor [.release [.extra]]]\\ sort of thing. Only 1 ini file is picked up, but with the registry, a setting in \PHP\5\ will be overwritten by a setting in \PHP\5.1\ (assuming it exists) and that by \PHP\5.1.4\ On 30/07/06, Andi Gutmans <andi@zend.com> wrote: Unless there are objections we can commit it for you. One change I'd like you to make though is to remove the V in the registry before the version #. Makes it harder for automated programs. It should just be SOFTWARE\\PHP\\5\\IniFilePath Btw, one thing I didn't understand. Are you cascading 5 and 5.1 and 5.1.4? That's weird.

The supplied patch enhances PHP's .INI from ... php-%sapi-name%.ini to ... php%php-version%-%sapi-module-name%.ini

php%php-major-version%.%php-minor-version%.%php-release-version%-%sapi

-module-name%.ini php%php-major-version%.%php-minor-version%-%sapi-module-name%.ini php%php-major-version%-%sapi-module-name%.ini with the original as a fallback. e.g. from php-isapi.ini to php5.2.0-dev-isapi.ini php5.1.4-isapi.ini php5.0-isapi.ini php5-isapi.ini php-isapi.ini (Just examples - all combinations are valid). With the INI files, the most specific one is looked for

first and each

check gets less specific until a file is found. The supplied patches also do the same work with the Windows

Registry.

Currently the registry key examined is ... SOFTWARE\\PHP This is extended to ... SOFTWARE\\PHP\\V5\\Per Directory Values SOFTWARE\\PHP\\V5.1\\Per Directory Values SOFTWARE\\PHP\\V5.1.4\\Per Directory Values SOFTWARE\\PHP\\V5.2.0-dev\\Per Directory Values The more specific settings will override the less specific settings. And the supplied patches allow for the location of the ini

file on a

per PHP version basis... SOFTWARE\\PHP\\V5\\IniFilePath SOFTWARE\\PHP\\V5.1\\IniFilePath SOFTWARE\\PHP\\V5.1.4\\IniFilePath SOFTWARE\\PHP\\V5.2.0-dev\\IniFilePath The more specific paths will be examined before the less

specific paths.

NOTE: I am NOT able to verify this code as I am not yet able to compile PHP. I'm still learning this, so please accept my apologies for any syntax errors, bugs. I'm more than willing to fix

them! And if

anyone has used MS VC++ Express Edition to build PHP, I'd be REALLY grateful to have any notes/comments about the process. Thanks, Richard Quadling. -- ----- Richard Quadling Zend Certified Engineer : http://zend.com/zce.php?c=ZEND002498&amp;r=213474731
