Go figure.. :) > Originally George and Wez were going to be writing this book (and may yet do their own version -- that's up to them). Due to innocuous reasons that I can probably talk about but won't to be on the safe side, I wound up taking over the project (and the ISBN number along with it). www.amazon.com has the updated metadata, some (most?) other pre-sellers don't.
Bottom line. If you order that ISBN numbered book, you'll get mine. The tricks of using php_request_startup()/php_request_shutdown() aren't covered (the embedding section focuses on some of the simpler uses of sapi/embed, the title would be way too long if I covered everything you could do in every part of the interpreter). The short answer is: call php_request_shutdown(NULL); to kill the active interpreter (one is started implicitly by PHP_EMBED_START_BLOCK(), then php_request_startup(TSRMLS_C); to initialize a new one (the last one active at PHP_EMBED_END_BLOCK() will be impliticly shutdown). > > I have placed an order for this book, I guess I should try and finish > > reading the other 4 php books I purchased recently before then :-) > > > Nah, reading is overrated, just so long as you buy it ;) -Sara -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
