I decided to just give up on trying to have a modern PHP Source development environment and re-compiled the exact same version (-r 5_0) as my webhost has, so that I could just bypass the whole issue of getting configure to read/write the paths I want to. My "Hello World" extension now works! I would like, at some point, to understand how configure actually works with regard to using multiple include/lib dirs. The closest I could come to that was when I'd get as far as compiling my extension and it would blow up with a bunch of errors about UChar and stuff like that... Maybe the macros for extensions changed with the ICU addition? [shrug] Anyway, y'all will hopefully breathe a sigh of relief that I won't post as much.

-r 5_1 should be fine as well. autoconf-wise there haven't been that many changes. -Rasmus

The problem is that configure keeps seeming to find /usr/local/* for one thing or another, and then it's not running/compiling the things I want... With 5.0, when it finds stuff in /usr/local/* it's the same stuff I wanted it to find in my home dir anyway, so all is good. When I tried -r 5_1, I just ended up with a mess. I might give it another shot after I finish up my extension, since I'd want to do that for testing anyway. PS I *still* have to hand edit my homedir phpize to rip out the exit 1 calls in the autoconf/autoheader tests. export PHP_AUTOCONF=/usr/local/bin/autoconf213 export PHP_AUTOHEADER=/usr/local/bin/autoheader213 just don't seem to be working for me, to get past those tests. That really don't seem "right" to me... Though, obviously, I'm not competent enough to say it's "wrong" either.

When you install PHP, use the right prefix. When you phpize something, use the --with-php-config=PREFIX/bin/php-config with the generated configure, that way you get to use the right include paths. --Jani On Sat, 15 Apr 2006, Richard Lynch wrote:
