Re: Howto build statically linked PHP CGI (without shared libs)

> statifier'd version of the CGI works fine.. but we're looking a better > method to directly built the CGI. you can always use llvm and compile all libraries you need to bitcode and then link them with PHP. that way will enable more optimizations and will also reduce the binary size, since llvm will remove the library functions that PHP doesn't use. (details on how to do this are too much off-topic for this list) Still, upgrading a library only represents a problem if its ABI changes (usually the filename changes as well). If not, there isn't any trouble. Nuno
