Isn't it better to avoid any behaviour-changing #define's in a header file? I mean the following series of lines in php_embed2.h: /* we control char* lifetime of smart_str as we allow it to cross request boundaries */ #define SMART_STR_USE_REALLOC 1 /* we use bigger numbers than default as script output will most likely be bigger than anticipated for smart_str usage */ #define SMART_STR_PREALLOC 2048 #define SMART_STR_START_SIZE 2000 #include <ext/standard/php_smart_str.h> TSRM needs to be initialized just once on startup. It's not the thing that has to be initialized per thread my 2c, Moriyoshi On Fri, Mar 27, 2009 at 4:35 AM, Bas van Beek <bas@tobin.nl> wrote: > Hi Guys, > > The Embed2 SAPI for embedded applications needing multi-thread enabled PHP > scripting support can be inspected from the following repository: > >        http://svn.tobin.nl/public/php/embed2/trunk/ > > The original Embedded SAPI does not allow concurrent script runs and as such > is less suited for multi-threaded applications .
