Customized ODBC database driver
Syntax: --with-custom-odbc=DIR
Description: Use custom ODBC function library. Of course, you must specify the CUSTOM_ODBC_LIBS and CFLAGS variables when using this method. For example, when using Sybase SQL Anywhere on a QNX machine, you may need to configure the system environment variables CFLAGS=-DODBC_QNX, LDFLAGS=-lunix and CUSTOM_ODBC_LIBS="-ldblib -lodbc", and add --with-custom-odbc=/ to the PHP configuration. usr/lib/sqlany50
Example: --with-custom-odbc=/usr/local/odbc
Does not use ODBC database driver
Syntax: --disable-unified-odbc
Note: Using this option will disable all ODBC database drivers. This option does not need to specify a path, and the options affected by this option are --with-iodbc, --with-solid, --with-adabas, --with-velocis and --with-custom-odbc.
LDAP Directory Protocol
Syntax: --with-ldap=DIR
Note: If you want to use the Directory Protocol (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol, LDAP), you must turn on this option. For details about LDAP, please refer to the RFC documents RFC1777 and RFC1778.
Example: --with-ldap=/usr/local/ldap.
mcrypt encoding function library
Syntax: --with-mcrypt=DIR

Note: If you need additional regular expression functions, you can add this option.
PHP configuration file
Syntax: --with-config-file-path=DIR
Description: Used to specify the path of php3.ini or php4.ini for use during PHP initialization.
Example: --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/lib
PHP execution path
Syntax: --with-exec-dir=DIR
Note: Sometimes for the sake of system security, the directory in which the PHP program must be executed is specified.
Example: --with-exec-dir=/usr/local/bin
Debug mode
Syntax: --enable-debug
Note: This option is generally not used unless it is useful when developing PHP programs. It can display additional error messages.
Safe Mode
Syntax: --enable-safe-mode

For example, a user reading http://my.host/cgi-bin/php/secret/doc.html may enter the following URL http://my.host/secret/doc when encountering a hacker-level user who knows the PHP system well. html to read relevant information. If PHP and Apache are compiled together, so that PHP becomes part of Apache, there is no need to add this option.
Do not use short tags
Syntax: --disable-short-tags
Note: After configuring this option, PHP programs cannot use short ; tags, and must use long ; tags.
Introducing remote files
Syntax: --enable-url-includes
Note: Configuring this option allows the PHP program to include files in the remote HTTP or FTP server.
Turn off syntax effects
Syntax: --disable-syntax-hl
Note: Using this option will turn off the color effect of PHP syntax.

Simplified Chinese version, 2005-12-07 17:40:26
php.ini or php3.ini is the configuration file that PHP will read when it starts. The storage path of this file is /usr/local/lib/. In PHP 3.x version, the configuration file is php3.ini; in PHP 4.x version, it is changed to php.ini. If PHP is installed as a server module, it will be read when the web server starts and executes, and will not be read after that. Therefore, if you change the configuration, you must restart the web server. If using the standalone PHP CGI method, it will be read once every time.
To check the current system configuration, you can use phpinfo()
