php,installation,php-extension,phalcon,devtools

Why php --modules doesn't show the module, though phpinfo() (in browser) does?) is the same: I enabled the module for FPM, but didn't do this for the CLI. $ ln -s /etc/php5/mods-available/phalcon.ini /etc/php5/cli/conf.d/20-phalcon.ini Now it works!...

Priority between spl_autoload_register and extension's function?
PHP will use the extension's one. This is because autoloading will only happen if you are attempting to access a class which does not already exist. Extension functions and classes will exist after PHP's startup meaning before the code starts to run.

PHP Extensions - RETURN_STRING
php,c++,string,valgrind,php-extension
Although it's not stated in the documentation for the RETURN_STRING macro (which seems like an omission: it should definitely state lifetime requirements) it would appear that the macro expands to more than one line. Say, for example: RETURN_STRING(myclass->test().c_str(), 1); becomes: const char* arg = myclass->test().c_str(); someCode(); someMoreCode(); finalCode(arg); arg is...
