greenberry Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Dear all, Recently I'm developing a PHP software. I wonder how could I determine the installation requirement of the program, such as PHP version, the settings for the options of the PHP engine, the required PHP extensions, etc. Is there any package that I can run to examine my scripts and then automatically output a requirement list? Thanks in advance, your help is very much appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 If you are developing it, don't you know what version you are coding it for and for what settings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budimir Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 You can download WAMP (www.wamp-server.com) and install it. After that type in your Internet browser: localhost and you will get all the info about current install. Good thing about new WAMP server 2 is that you can install any version of Apache, PHP and MySQL and use any of these versions just by clicking on them. Try it, it's working fine for me.

greenberry Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 I'm developing it with a very well loaded environment. But when I distribute it, I'd like to know the minimum requirement. For example, I used a function "file_put_contents" whith is only available from PHP version 5. If I'd deploy the software on a server that has a PHP engine with a version lower than 5, I'll come up some extra code to make the software ok on the server. My question is, before I wrap up the software, and without having to manually inspect every function and/or feature I used, is it possible to easily determine the minumun requirement of my software. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenberry Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 Thanks a lot! I'll try the WampServer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 is it possible to easily determine the minumun requirement of my software. Not that I'm aware of. You yourself would need to be aware of the requirements and program accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
