C is a very low-level language by modern definitions. This means that it has no built-in support for many features that PHP takes for granted, such as reflection, dynamic module loading, bounds checking, threadsafe data management and various useful data structures including linked lists and hash tables. At the same time, C is a common denominator of language support and functionality. Given enough work, none of these concepts are impossible; the Zend Engine uses them all.
A lot of effort has gone into making the Zend API both extensible and understandable, but C forces certain necessary declarations upon any extension that to an inexperienced eye seem redundant or plain unnecessary. All of those constructs, detailed in this section, are "write once and forget" in Zend Engine 2 and 3. Here are some excerpts from the pre-generated php_counter.h and counter.c files created by PHP 5.3's ext_skel, showing the pre-generated declarations:
Note: The astute reader will notice that there are several declarations in the real files that aren't shown here. Those declarations are specific to various Zend subsystems and are discussed elsewhere as appropriate.

PHP_COUNTER_API
is declared for use by non-PHP
functions the module intends to export for the use of other modules. The
counter extension doesn't declare any of these, and in the final version of
the header file, this macro has been removed. The
PHPAPI
macro is declared identically elsewhere and is
used by the standard extension to make the phpinfo()
utility functions available to other extensions.
COMPILE_DL_COUNTER
will only be defined by
configure if the counter extension is both enabled and
wants to be built as a dynamically loadable module instead of being
statically linked into PHP. ZEND_GET_MODULE
defines a
tiny function which Zend can use to get the extension's
zend_module_entry at runtime.
Note: The astute reader who has peeked into main/php_config.h after trying to build with the counter module enabled statically may have noticed that there is also a
HAVE_COUNTER
constant defined that the source code doesn't check for. There's a simple reason this check isn't done: It's unnecessary. If the extension isn't enabled, the source file will never be compiled.
