This is a standalone PHP extension created using CodeGen_PECL 1.1.3

HACKING

=======

There are two ways to modify an extension created using CodeGen_PECL:

1) you can modify the generated code as with any other PHP extension

  

2) you can add custom code to the CodeGen_PECL XML source and re-run pecl-gen

The 2nd approach may look a bit complicated but you have be aware that any

manual changes to the generated code will be lost if you ever change the

XML specs and re-run PECL-Gen. All changes done before have to be applied

to the newly generated code again.

Adding code snippets to the XML source itself on the other hand may be a 

bit more complicated but this way your custom code will always be in the

generated code no matter how often you rerun CodeGen_PECL.

BUILDING ON UNIX etc.

=====================

To compile your new extension, you will have to execute the following steps:

1.  $ ./phpize

2.  $ ./configure [--with-libsixel=...] 

3.  $ make

4.  $ make test

5.  $ [sudo] make install

BUILDING ON WINDOWS

===================

The extension provides the VisualStudio V6 project file 

  sixel.dsp

To compile the extension you open this file using VisualStudio,

select the apropriate configuration for your installation

(either "Release_TS" or "Debug_TS") and create "php_sixel.dll"

After successfull compilation you have to copy the newly

created "sixel.dll" to the PHP

extension directory (default: C:\PHP\extensions).

TESTING

=======

You can now load the extension using a php.ini directive

  extension="sixel.[so|dll]"

or load it at runtime using the dl() function

  dl("sixel.[so|dll]");

The extension should now be available, you can test this

using the extension_loaded() function:

  if (extension_loaded("sixel"))

    echo "sixel loaded :)";

  else

    echo "something is wrong :(";

The extension will also add its own block to the output

of phpinfo();
