如何使用 `phpize` 启用 php 扩展？

Question

I tried these steps on different extensions but I don't know why that doesn't work. Shouldn't I see a change in phpinfo() output after that?

The steps:

1. Decompress the php source code and change directory to ext/ext_name
2. phpize
3. configure
4. make
5. move manually the "ext_name.so" file from "../.lib" directory to "extension_dir" specified in "php.ini" file. (or do make install )
6. restart web service

Is there something missing? I need to enable a certain extension in php and there's no way to recompile the whole php version..

Answer 1

If the .so is properly compiled etc, and it's in your extension dir, then you need to add the following line also:

extension=NAME.so

This will force the loading. At this point, provided there is actually something to display, it will show in phpinfo() .
