Writing extensions.

XML, Perl, Python, and other languages can be discussed here, even if it isn't PHP (We might forgive you).

Writing extensions.

Post by kaisellgren »

Hi,

I have a few question about writing PHP extensions.

Can an extension affect the way the execution of a script goes?

Is it possible for an extension to change values of variables?

Can I grab the contents of data that were pushed to functions like mysql_query()?

If this kind of stuff can be achieved with extensions, then I am really interested.

Are you talking about Pear? If so I would give it a miss since it is being dumped for PHP6. Not sure what's going to be used instead.

I've not done anything with extensions, but I'd image they probably would be able to do what you have mentioned about picking up data going to/from PHP functions.
