Re: Installing PEAR with binary distributions

First we detect that $ext_dir = (isset($ext_dir)) ? $ext_dir : PEAR_EXTENSION_DIR; in pear.in crashes PHP... So i propose this way for installing PEAR for Win: - the php installer or the user have to set an enviroment variable PHP_PATH - in php4/pear/scripts are placed pear.bat and pearwin.php pearwin.php is pear.in without the shebang and including some defines define( PEAR_INSTALL_DIR, "set/the/path"); define( PEAR_EXTENSION_DIR, "set/the/path"); - the user have to edit this defines before use Not very comfortable, but this seems to be the easiest way to do pear package HTTP_Upload/package.xml pear install HTTP_0.6.tgz on Win
