building external libraries for binary distributtion

Hi,

hi all,

i work on building my own external library that should be usable within
php
using the //dl(.) command. so i read it the docs about how to write
extension
but i felt somehow low left alone, cause the docs only just describes
how to
create extensions that are shipped with the source for being able to
build a
complete new php (and the code the documents contain isn't working
either !!!).
so what i'm looking for is a mechanism to built my extension on my local
php
installation (full sourc of everything available) and then just only
send the library
file (myext.so) to the customer, that itself just puts the lib somewhere
to be loaded
by php's //dl(.) command

are there any other docs / recources available than those from the
php-manual: en/zend.creating.php

http://pear.php.net/manual/en/introduction.php#about-pecl

• after you have written your config.m4 do this:
• phpize
• ./configure
• make
• make install

then you get a .so, wich you can send to your customer.
