Hi,

THanks for the info. It worked fine with APC and Xdebug.

I am getting the following for mcrypt but since it does not come from PECL is there any other way to solve it?

Unable to load dynamic library ‘/usr/local/zend/lib/php_extensions/mcrypt.so’ – dlopen(/usr/local/zend/lib/php_extensions/mcrypt.so, 9): Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libltdl.3.dylib

Hi, by chance (well, actually by looking at ./configure –help) I found that one can add the –enable-fat-binaries opton to the configure script. This avoids the errors with multiple architecture options and the standard flags. The following worked for gearmand 0.18, 0.19, and 0.2 on MacOS 10.5

./configure CFLAGS=’-arch ppc -arch i386 -arch x86_64′ APXSLDFLAGS=’-arch ppc -arch i386 -arch x86_64′ –with-boost=/usr/local –enable-fat-binaries

Checking the libgearman, e.g.

file /usr/local/lib/libgearman.4.dylib
/usr/local/lib/libgearman.4.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 3 architectures
/usr/local/lib/libgearman.4.dylib (for architecture i386): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386
/usr/local/lib/libgearman.4.dylib (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64
/usr/local/lib/libgearman.4.dylib (for architecture ppc7400): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library ppc

So this hopefully adds a “Plan A” to your very helpful description.

Slightly simpler version if you’re using Macports to get ahold of libgearman and etc:
$ sudo port install gearmand +universal
$ cd /tmp
$ sudo pecl download gearman-beta
$ tar -zxvf gearman-0.7.0.tgz
$ cd gearman-0.7.0
$ phpize
$ ./configure LDFLAGS=’-arch i386′ CCFLAGS=’-arch i386′ CXXFLAGS=’-arch i386′ CFLAGS=’-arch i386′
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ sudo zendctl.sh restart-apache

And you’re done. The simplification is telling macports you want a universal bundle of the libraries it installs, which then enables you to link and compile an i386-only php extension against them, but still maintain system-wide 64bit availability.

Optik,

To my knowledge, that is correct. Generally inside a header file you’ll see architecture specific if blocks. For example, in event.h (on my system, part of libevent), you might see #ifdef WIN32 … #else … #endif

Thanks, I haven’t solved this multiarch problems yet, hence just maybe stupid question. Header files (not only for gearman but generally) are always architecture independent?
