   1 <H2> PHP-ZIP Installation </H2>
   2
   3 <P>
   4   There have been many problems about the installation of the php-zip
   5   module. Since Mid of 2006 the php-zip module does not require the
   6   zziplib anymore - it uses its own implementation (which is a clean
   7   approach in a double sense - there are no source code comments).
   8   So, the following might possibly be only relevant for older
   9   installations.
  10 </P>

  12 <P> Chris Branch has been kind enough to jot down the points of a
  13     successful php-zip installation sending it to me in May 2006.
  14     I am quoting his text verbatim - again, I do not know whether
  15     it works or not as I am not using any PHP for real work.
  16 </P>

  54 <p><b>[***] Note:</b>
  55 That step is the critical step that's not obvious.  Apparently,
  56 when you build PHP as a static library and include the "--with-zip"
  57 option, it creates a static library for PHP with an external dependency on
  58 zziplib.a.  However, the Apache configure script and resulting Makefile
  59 doesn't take this into account, so Apache won't link unless you hand-edit
  60 the Apache Makefile.  (Maybe there's a better place to make this change so
  61 that you don't have to re-fix Apache's Makefile each time you run Apache's
  62 ./configure.  However, I didn't spend the time to investigate that).
