Unable to load dynamic library

So php in both MAMP and MAPP stack isn’t compiled to support dynamic libraries.
why does php.ini have .dll files, they don’t work on macs. macs need .so files, plus there is no extension directory inside php/lib/php.

Hi,

PHP is compiled with MySQL and PostgreSQL support depending on the stack, but as you point out, this support is not through dynamic libraries. This is something we pretend to implement in future versions of the stack. You can still load other libraries dynamically modifying ‘php.ini’, though.

About the php.ini referencing to dll files, I think that is the standard version of php.ini that you can find in the official tarball.

Cheers
