(PHP 4, PHP 5)
dl — Loads a PHP extension at runtime
Loads the PHP extension given by the parameter library .
Use extension_loaded() to test whether a given extension is already available or not. This works on both built-in extensions and dynamically loaded ones (either through php.ini or dl()).
This parameter is only the filename of the extension to load which also depends on your platform. For example, the sockets extension (if compiled as a shared module, not the default!) would be called sockets.so on Unix platforms whereas it is called php_sockets.dll on the Windows platform.
The directory where the extension is loaded from depends on your platform:
Windows - If not explicitly set in the php.ini, the extension is loaded from c:\php4\extensions\ by default.
Unix - If not explicitly set in the php.ini, the default extension directory depends on
Taking into account the above, the directory then defaults to <install-dir>/lib/php/extensions/ <debug-or-not>-<zts-or-not>-ZEND_MODULE_API_NO, e.g. /usr/local/php/lib/php/extensions/debug-non-zts-20010901 or /usr/local/php/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-zts-20010901.
如果成功则返回 TRUE，失败则返回 FALSE。 If the functionality of loading modules is not available (see Note) or has been disabled (either by turning it off enable_dl or by enabling 安全模式 in php.ini) an E_ERROR is emitted and execution is stopped. If dl() fails because the specified library couldn't be loaded, in addition to FALSE an E_WARNING message is emitted.
Example #1 dl() examples
<?php
// Example loading an extension based on OS
if (!extension_loaded('sqlite')) {
if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3)) === 'WIN') {
dl('php_sqlite.dll');
} else {
dl('sqlite.so');
}
}
// Or, the PHP_SHLIB_SUFFIX constant is available as of PHP 4.3.0
if (!extension_loaded('sqlite')) {
$prefix = (PHP_SHLIB_SUFFIX === 'dll') ? 'php_' : '';
dl($prefix . 'sqlite.' . PHP_SHLIB_SUFFIX);
}
?>
| 版本 | 说明 |
|---|---|
| 5.3.0 | This function now throws an E_DEPRECATED notice on all sapi's except for CLI, CGI and Embed. |
Note: dl() is not supported in multithreaded Web servers. Use the extensions statement in your php.ini when operating under such an environment. However, the CGI and CLI build are not affected !
Note: As of PHP 5, the dl() function is deprecated in every SAPI except CLI. Use Extension Loading Directives method instead.
Note: Since PHP 6 this function is disabled in all SAPIs, except CLI, CGI and embed.
Note: dl() is case sensitive on Unix platforms.
Note: 本函数在安全模式下被禁用。
