<para>
|
|
You can download PHP from any of the members of the
|
|
PHP network of sites. These can be found at
|
|
<link xlink:href="&url.php;">&url.php;</link>.
|
|
You can also use anonymous Git to get the absolute latest
|
|
version of the source. For more information, go to
|
|
<link xlink:href="&url.php.anongit;">&url.php.anongit;</link>.

<question>

<para>Are pre-compiled binary versions available?</para>

|
</question>
|
|
<answer>
|
|
<para>
|
|
We only distribute precompiled binaries for Windows systems,
|
|
as we are not able to compile PHP for every major Linux/Unix
|
|
platform with every extension combination. Also note, that
|
|
many Linux distributions come with PHP built in these days.
|
|
Windows binaries can be downloaded from our <link
|
|
xlink:href="&url.php.downloads;">Downloads</link> page, for Linux
|
|
binaries, please visit your distribution's website.

<question>

<para>How do I get these libraries to work?</para>
|
|
</question>
|
|
<answer>
|
|
<para>
|
|
You will need to follow instructions provided with the library. Some of
|
|
these libraries are detected automatically when you run the 'configure'
|
|
script of PHP (such as the GD library), and others you will have to
|
|
enable using '<literal>--with-EXTENSION</literal>' options to
|
|
'<literal>configure</literal>'. Run
|
|
'<literal>configure --help</literal>' for a listing of these.

<qandaentry xml:id="faq.obtaining.threadsafety">
|
|
<question>
|
|
<para>What does thread safety mean when downloading PHP?</para>
|
|
</question>
|
|
<answer>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Thread Safety means that binary can work in a multithreaded webserver
|
|
context, such as Apache 2 on Windows. Thread Safety works by creating
|
|
a local storage copy in each thread, so that the data won't collide
|
|
with another thread.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
So what do I choose? If you choose to run PHP as a CGI binary, then
|
|
you won't need thread safety, because the binary is invoked at each
|
|
request. For multithreaded webservers, such as IIS5 and IIS6, you should
|
|
use the threaded version of PHP.
