Hi,
After installing PHP on a Windows machine I see a very small
PHP-executable and several extension dll's that can be loaded.
When I build PHP on a QNX machine I get one huge executable of 8.6 MB.
Is it possible to build something similar to the Windows version?
yes, by specifying to ./configure that it should build shared extensions
or those extensions that allow it. so the relevant ./configure options
will look something like:
--enable-foo=shared,/path/to/libs
I tried that but it didn't work.
didn't work in what way?
It is still one binary of 8.6 MB and no shared libs.
what's your configure line look like right now?
PS - I'd never heard of QNX - just looked it up - interested to know
what your
doing with it and php.
I have an embedded system with an sqlite database. I want a web interface
that shows database info and maybe system info.
cool :-)
PPS - Is a single large binary any worse than a smaller binary that
loads
in a bunch of extensions (assuming the same extensions in each case),
won't
the memory footprint be near enough the same for each?
It seems that my system has a problem with loading large binaries. It
would be nice if I could decide in the ini file which extensions will be
loaded (I am not sure which extensions I need).
I use the shttpd web server. This one does not support fast cgi. Loading
a large cgi interpreter each time slows down my system.
ok - seems like you will only be needing a small subset of the available
extensions.
have you tried using --disable-all and then only enabling the extensions
you really
need, It may get the binary size down to a usable level.
When I use the option --disable-all the binary is about 5 MB. Which is much
too large.
An option could be not to use php but perl. This binary is 1 MB. But I
think the best option is a web server with fast cgi.
Removing the debugging symbols and enabling the extensions I need gives
me a binary of 2.7 MB which is already better.
lighthttpd?
It took me a while to port lighttpd + libs but it is just what I am
looking for.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Richard
