Overview of Extending and Embedding PHP, embedding
In just a few years, PHP has quickly evolved from a niche language to a powerful web development tool. Currently, PHP is more stable and scalable than ever before when it is used on more than 4 million of websites. However, there are no documents on how to expand PHP. Developers who want to develop PHP extensions to improve the performance and functions of PHP applications can only browse the internal implementation of PHP through word of mouth or without the help of the system. Although the basic knowledge of PHP extensions is quite easy to understand, the learning curve is rather steep and difficult to overcome with more advanced features. Companies with high-traffic websites are forced to hire talented and expensive developers to improve website performance, which is common. Now, using Extending and Embedding PHP, Sara Golemon guides readers to implement PHP in an elaborate internal manner, so that every PHP developer can compile PHP extensions.
