Libtool is nasty but it is possible. With this small Makefile modification you'll get what you want: BUILD_CLI = $(LIBTOOL) --mode=link $(CC) -all-static ^^^ Just add the '-all-static' option there after $(CC) and before any other stuff on the line. And same for BUILD_CGI line too if you want that as all static too. I tested this and it worked, with some nasty notices but those can be ignored. :) BEWARE: You need ALL the libraries that PHP links to as static libs for this to work! --Jani -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP-DEV] Howto build statically linked PHP CGI (without shared libs)
Dear Srs, I'm trying to compile a statically linked, without shared libs, CGI version of PHP, I've already tested with 5.2.6 and 5.2.7-dev. Is there any option in ./configure to compile PHP with this feature? Also I have tried passing CC and CFLAGS environment variables with -static flags.. but the CGI builds using shared libs, example: # file /tmp/php-cgi /tmp/php-cgi: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped # ldd php-cgi | head libcrypt.so.1 = /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x00335000) libc-client.so.0 = /usr/lib/libc-client.so.0 (0xb7f38000) libexslt.so.0 = /usr/lib/libexslt.so.0 (0x00367000) libz.so.1 = /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x00323000) libm.so.6 = /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x002fe000) libaspell.so.15 = /usr/lib/libaspell.so.15 (0x00767000) libpspell.so.15 = /usr/lib/libpspell.so.15 (0xb7f36000) librt.so.1 = /lib/tls/librt.so.1 (0x006b2000) libmysqlclient.so.14 = /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.14 (0xb7dff000) libmcrypt.so.4 = /usr/lib/libmcrypt.so.4 (0xb7dce000) How can I compile statically the CGI version of PHP?

We want to provide a method to customize PHP version to our clients; for example, all our servers run with PHP 5.1.6, but if one client needs PHP v5.2.6 to run X CMS.. so we provide a statically linked version of the CGI for 5.2.6. In the future, if we upgrade from CentOS 4 to CentOS 5 (for example).. all clients running with the default PHP version in the server will not have problem. But clients with personalized PHP version running as CGI, will have problems: there will be no available the shared libs wich is dynamically linked to.. So, we want to provide this version of the CGI.., we know that the version of the CGI will be bigger, and that's not a good idea, but we need to do it ;-( How can I compile statically the CGI version of PHP?

Re: [PHP-DEV] Howto build statically linked PHP CGI (without shared libs)
statifier'd version of the CGI works fine.. but we're looking a better method to directly built the CGI. you can always use llvm and compile all libraries you need to bitcode and then link them with PHP. that way will enable more optimizations and will also reduce the binary size, since llvm will remove the library functions that PHP doesn't use. (details on how to do this are too much off-topic for this list) Still, upgrading a library only represents a problem if its ABI changes (usually the filename changes as well). If not, there isn't any trouble. Nuno -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I needed something like this to for profiling. I believe I got the static archive linked, but it was a while ago, so I'm not positive (sadly, the profiling never worked this way). Here is the script I used. I don't think the script itself works, but if you have a look through the last 5 or 6 lines of it, it should be easy enough. http://code.google.com/p/phc/source/browse/trunk/misc/old/get_libphp5_archive Those long lines were created by looking at the make output used for building the shared archive. I think I had to manually remove .o files every time the linker complained, which was a lot, a problem that you don't have with shared libs.
