# [VOTE] APXS LoadModule Option in configure - Thread: https://externals.io/message/58272 - Original archive: https://news-web.php.net/php.internals/58272 - Started by Kris Craig on 2012-02-28T20:19:50+00:00 - Messages: 6 - Reply by email to internals@lists.php.net - More for agents: search with https://externals.io/search.md?q={query} · JSON API at https://externals.io/api · documentation at https://externals.io/llms.txt --- ## #58272 — Kris Craig — 2012-02-28T20:19:50+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/58272#58272 Hi all, It looks like we've reached a consensus on this, so absent any objections, I went ahead and moved this to the voting phase. If you're eligible to vote on RFC's, please navigate to the RFC and cast your vote now: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/apxs-loadmodule In case you weren't following the previous thread, this is a very low-impact RFC that will add a new, optional switch to the configure script. This switch, if specified, would tell APXS (which already has this functionality built-in) not to write the LoadModule line to httpd.conf when "make install" is performed. This is a feature that has been requested for some time and would allow people with manually-built PHP installs to isolate their mod_php hooks in a separate php.conf file without having to manually edit httpd.conf whenever a new build is performed. If this optional switch is not specified, the configure script will behave exactly as it does now. As such, this RFC will *not* alter configure's existing behavior unless you explicitly include this new switch. Please let me know if you have any last-minute questions. Otherwise, happy voting! Thanks! --Kris --- ## #58424 — Kris Craig — 2012-03-01T21:04:02+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/58272#58424 · In reply to: #58272 Just a friendly reminder to vote on this if you haven't already. 5 people have voted on it thus far but I'd like to have at least twice that by the time voting closes.

This RFC was passed unanimously 12-0. I'll commit the changes to 5.4 at the earliest opportunity. I just realized that the language was somewhat vague as to whether it should be applied to 5.3 branch or not; I don't really care either way but I'll probably just go ahead and apply it to both unless anyone has any objections.

Any reason to change the 'logic' of 5.3 now? Having already been hit by a 5.4 change that has not been back-ported, some consistency on what is and isn't would be helpful, and I don't think there is any point changing this now as most people will simply be updating existing set-ups, and we should be recommending 5.4 for new installations anyway? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php --- ## #58752 — Kris Craig — 2012-03-07T19:05:24+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/58272#58752 · In reply to: #58720 > Kris Craig wrote: > > > […] > > Any reason to change the 'logic' of 5.3 now?

Ok, you've convinced me. I'll only apply it to 5.4. =) --Kris
