    Developing Custom PHP Extensions: Part 1


    (Page 1 of 5 )

    Ever wanted to add your own custom functionality to PHP? In this series of articles Igal will teach us how to do just that using the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler in Windows.Hello and welcome to part one of the "Developing Custom PHP Extensions" article series. After reading this article’s name, one of the first things you might be asking yourself is: what exactly is a PHP extension? After knowing the answer to that question, the next one – presumably – will be: what are PHP extensions needed for? And finally (assuming you have not lost your interest), the last question will be: How do I develop my own extensions?

    In this series of articles I will answer those questions in my favorite way: developing our own "useful" PHP extension from scratch. However, before we reach that goal, we must answer some of the questions mentioned above.

    In this and subsequent article(s), I will assume basic knowledge of the Visual C++ compiler as well as a fairly decent knowledge of C. Basic knowledge of PHP is also required.
