Documentation for creating PECL extension View as Markdown

I have some knowledge of C and would like to
learn more, i have a great book by Deitel & Deitel
and have gone through it. What i would like to know is
where i can get docs on creating PHP extensions so
that i could use them with my PHP on windows and nix.

http://www.zend.com/php/internals/ should be enough to get you started.

George Schlossnagle's "Advanced PHP Programming" has a chapter or two in the
back on extension development, and I should have "Extending and Embedding
PHP" out early next year.

Beyond that, just ask questions (preferrably on the pecl-dev@lists.php.net
list -- internals@ is supposed to be focused on the core) and hopefully
someone will be able to offer insight.

You can also check out my book: http://tinyurl.com/7aect It's a free download.
It has one chapter of the basics for PHP extension writing. It might
not answer all your questions but definitely gives a solid foundation
for understanding how things work.
