Install bcompiler for PHP on Ubuntu Linux
By admin | August 10, 2008
The PHP bytecode compiler is a useful way to convert PHP to bytecode, which can then be converted to binaries. However, the Ubuntu packaging team has not yet made a binary package of bcompiler available. However, you can install this bytecode compiler yourself with these 9 easy to follow steps. A binary build is availible, but you should try to compile/install it yourself because the binary extension might not be suitable for your computer.

Libraries have been installed in:
/var/tmp/pear-build-root/bcompiler-0.8/modulesIf you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR’
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
– add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH’ environment variable
during execution
– add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH’ environment variable
during linking
– use the `-Wl,–rpath -Wl,LIBDIR’ linker flag
– have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf’See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

Installing ‘/usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs/bcompiler.so’
install ok: channel://pear.php.net/bcompiler-0.8 - If you encounter “ERROR: `phpize’ failed“, that means you have not yet installed php5-dev. Repeat step 1 then try again.
- If you encounter “configure: WARNING: You will need re2c 0.12.0 or later if you want to regenerate PHP parsers“, repeat step 2 to install re2c.
- If you encounter “checking for BZip2 in default path… not found” or “configure: error: Please reinstall the BZip2 distribution“, repeat step 2 to install libbz2-dev.
- Add “extension=bcompiler.so” to /etc/php5/cli/php.ini to activate the extension.
- You’re done! To test it, save the following file as example.php:
<?php /** * A function to output hello world * * @function helloWorld * @return void */ function helloWorld() { echo "Hello World!\n"; } ?>Save the following as compile.php:
<?php $fh = fopen("example.phb", "w"); bcompiler_write_header($fh); bcompiler_write_file($fh, "example.php"); bcompiler_write_footer($fh); fclose($fh); ?>And save this one as use_p.php:
<?php include_once('example.phb'); helloWorld(); helloWorld(); helloWorld(); ?>Now run compile.php to compile it. Then run use_p.php – you should see “Hello World!” three times. If you do, you’re done!
- If for any reason your computer cannot compile bcompiler.so, here is a binary build just in case. Do not forget to test it using the step above!
