Dumb PHP trick du jour

I needed to rebuild PHP to add SOAP support. (Side note: when will it be reasonable to add functionality w/o rebuilding the core binary, like, oh, every other language in the world?)

Obviously I want to preserve build options, and just tack on a new one. So:


# php -i | grep “Configure Command” | sed -e ’s/Configure Command => //’ -e “s/’//g”


Just just a flick of the mouse, add my new option, and endlessly whine that PHP makes me rebuild the binary eleventy million times a month.
