dear all a while ago there was a thread discussing the installation directory c:\php4, which is afaik created by default while installing pear. since some people use to have their php somewhere else, i was looking for a fix to get rid of that default setting and was looking for a solution, where one can adapt it by setting e.g. an environment variable. it has been pointed out on http://bugs.php.net/17516 i discussed this also with mfischer@php.net and i modified the source code in main/config.w32.h.in and main/main.c to fit for that need. it would be nice if someone could have a go on the binaries i compiled; they are available for a while here: http://www.circle.ch/debug/bugs_php_net_17516_fix/ so, one can now set PEAR_INSTALL_DIR to e.g. c:\i-like-to-have-pear-here\ and i will be interpreted by php at runtime. i could not yet test, if it affects the pear installation at all. any thoughts? -urs ----- changed code in main/config.w32.h.in: #define PEAR_INSTALLDIR (getenv("PEAR_INSTALL_DIR")) ? getenv("PEAR_INSTALL_DIR") : "c:\\php4\\pear" changed code in main/main.c: REGISTER_MAIN_STRINGL_CONSTANT("PEAR_INSTALL_DIR", PEAR_INSTALLDIR, strlen(PEAR_INSTALLDIR), CONST_PERSISTENT | CONST_CS);
