I think I finally have something demoable, regarding the possibility of
extending pecl4win to offer compiled dlls of the released version pf
pecl packages, besides the compiled cvs version.
The build process is almost ok:
+ two separate build environments (incl. pecl trees) are used: one for
pecl cvs, one for packaged versions
+ after pulling via http the released packages from pecl.php.net, if
file config.win32 is missing. it is pulled in from cvs. This brought
total compiled dll count (for php 5.2.3) up to 38 (there are 3/4
config.w32 files that still need to be patched by hand, but you only
have to do it once)
+ I still have to sort out some troubles in building single extensions...
A modified version of the pecl4win site is available here:
http://gggeek.altervista.org/sw/pecl4in/
Please note that all links on the pages are broken (no postgres support
on that shared host, so I took snapshots of the actual php scripts), you
can only access the pages via the main index.
It is built on a very small, hand inserted data set, with the only
purpose of testing php+sql code.
There is a lot more info than before available, but I somehow have the
feeling that the disposition is messy. Any suggestion for a better
layout/infoset is welcome.
Please note that:
+ page titles / table column headers have been reworked a bit, for
greater consistency
+ the single ext.page layout has seen a column/row swap to accommodate
many releases of the same extension
+ a link back to pecl has been added on the single extension page
+++ there is a huge inconsistency between pecl and pecl4win: whereas the
former uses the term PACKAGE, the latter uses EXTENSION. Maybe it would
be a good idea to fix this?
Bye
Gaetano
ps: I'm still polishing the code, but it is available to everybody who
requests it...
