Below is a partial list of configure options used by the PHP configure scripts when compiling in Unix-like environments. Most configure options are listed in their appropriate locations and not here. For a complete up-to-date list of configure options, run ./configure --help in your PHP source directory after running autoconf (see also the Installation chapter). You may also be interested in reading the GNU configure documentation for information on additional configure options such as --prefix=PREFIX.
Note: These are only used at compile time. If you want to alter PHP's runtime configuration, please see the chapter on Runtime Configuration.
Note: These options are only used in PHP 4 as of PHP 4.1.0. Some are available in older versions of PHP 4, some even in PHP 3, some only in PHP 4.1.0. If you want to compile an older version, some options will probably not be available.
The imagick extension has been moved to PECL in PEAR and can be found at http://pear.php.net/imagick. Install instructions for PHP 4 can be found on the PEAR site.

Build PHP as a Pike module for use with Caudium. DIR is the Caudium server dir, with the default value /usr/local/caudium/server.
Available with PHP 4.3.0. Disable building the CLI version of PHP (this forces --without-pear). More information is available in the section about Using PHP from the command line.
Enable building of the embedded SAPI library. TYPE is either shared or static, which defaults to shared. Available with PHP 4.3.0.
Build fhttpd module. DIR is the fhttpd sources directory, defaults to /usr/local/src/fhttpd. No longer available as of PHP 4.3.0.
Build PHP as an ISAPI module for use with Zeus.
Specify path to the installed Netscape/iPlanet/SunONE Webserver.
No information yet.
Build PHP as a module for use with Pi3Web.
Build PHP as a Pike module. DIR is the base Roxen directory, normally /usr/local/roxen/server.
Build the Roxen module using Zend Thread Safety.

If this is enabled, the CGI module will be built with support for FastCGI also. Available since PHP 4.3.0
