Most UNIX like system supports shard text segment for binary, you don't have to worry much about memory usage for including modules.... dl() has some known problems also (It works most for cases, so you probably don't have to worry) Anyway, you can try to build gd module as self contained module. Read README.SELF-CONTAINED-EXTENSION in PHP source root to build it as self contained module. It may work. -- Yasuo Ohgaki -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
