How to install PHP with the BCMath arbitrary precision math library?
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Due to license restrictions, the BC math library can no longer be distributed
|
||
|
|
along with PHP. The BC math library is distributed under the restrictive
|
||
|
|
GNU Public License, and PHP is no longer distributed under that license, but
|
||
|
|
under a less restrictive license, the PHP License.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you want to enable BC math support (recommended), all you have to do is
|
||
|
|
simply download http://www.php.net/extra/number4.tar.gz, and untar it on the
|
||
|
|
top level php4 directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A typical way of doing this would be (assuming that you have lynx):
|
||
|
|
cd ~/php4
|
||
|
|
lynx -dump -source http://www.php.net/extra/number4.tar.gz | gzip -d | tar xvf -
