This is a standalone PHP extension created using CodeGen_PECL 1.0.3
HACKING
=======
There are two ways to modify an extension created using CodeGen_PECL:
1) you can modify the generated code as with any other PHP extension
2) you can add custom code to the CodeGen_PECL XML source and re-run pecl-gen
The 2nd approach may look a bit complicated but you have be aware that any
manual changes to the generated code will be lost if you ever change the
XML specs and re-run PECL-Gen. All changes done before have to be applied
to the newly generated code again.
Adding code snippets to the XML source itself on the other hand may be a
bit more complicated but this way your custom code will always be in the
generated code no matter how often you rerun CodeGen_PECL.
BUILDING ON UNIX etc.
=====================
If there are not header files in /php-install-dir/include/php/ext/gd,
execute the following steps before install:
1. $ [sudo] mkdir -p /php-install-dir/include/php/ext/gd/libgd
2. $ [sudo] cp /php-source-dir/ext/gd/*.h /php-install-dir/include/php/ext/gd
3. $ [sudo] cp /php-source-dir/ext/gd/libgd/*.h /php-install-dir/include/php/ext/gd/libgd
To compile your new extension, you will have to execute the following steps:
1. $ phpize
2. $ ./configure [--enable-qr] [--enable-qr-gd] [--with-qr-tiff=/path/to/zlib-install-dir]
3. $ make
[4. $ make test ] # NOTE: this doesn't work right now *)
5. $ [sudo] make install
*) this is a general problem with "make test" and standalone extensions
(that is being worked on) so please don't blame CodeGen_PECL for this
BUILDING ON WINDOWS
===================
The extension provides the VisualStudio V6 project file
qr.dsp
To compile the extension you open this file using VisualStudio,
select the apropriate configuration for your installation
(either "Release_TS" or "Debug_TS") and create "php_qr.dll"
After successfull compilation you have to copy the newly
created "php_qr.dll" to the PHP
extension directory (default: C:PHPextensions).
TESTING
=======
You can now load the extension using a php.ini directive
extension="php_qr.[so|dll]"
or load it at runtime using the dl() function
dl("php_qr.[so|dll]");
The extension should now be available, you can test this
using the extension_loaded() function:
if (extension_loaded(qr))
echo "qr loaded :)";
else
echo "something is wrong :(";
The extension will also add its own block to the output
of phpinfo();
