Compile PHP with pthreads

[TheDiamondYT1]

Please can this be done, or at least tell me how to do it on termux.

pcntl is not enough? Is enabled in current build...

[TheDiamondYT1]

The software I'm trying to run requires pthreads

[robertvalik]

I believe the MariaDB package is working - #216 . It would be great to have pdo_mysql!

[robertvalik]

I see, I believe that I have been writing it in the pdo_mysql thread - must have messed it up somehow... Sorry.

How to install pthreads ?

[vaites]

The extension probably must be patched because of the partial support for pthreads on Android... You can try using source code and phpize as usual but will fail.

[TheDiamondYT1]

pthreads can be included in a static PHP binary on Android

[PokeyvalGamer]

But with pecl and phpize missing php-pthreads.lo for make

[PokeyvalGamer]

1 warning and 14 errors generated.
make: *** [Makefile:196: php_pthreads.lo] Error 1
ERROR: `make' failed

@PokeyvalGamer Someone has created a static PocketMine-MP Android binary but it's 32-bit and i need 64-bit, since PocketMine dropped 32-bit support.

Maybe we can do what happens on Ubuntu — install the basic PHP then install extensions seperatly as their own packages. This would allow for greater flexibility and ease of use.

@TheDiamondYT1 Yes, but I tried to install pthreads with pecl / gcc / make but this gives me the error above you have an idea to install the extentions once the lib created it can be put with the php.ini

https://packages.ubuntu.com/zesty/php/

look through there and you can see many php extensions
