Installation

PHP 4

Note:

Zip support before PHP 4.1.0 is experimental.

Warning

Because the PHP 4 zip extension is unmaintained we recommend that the PECL extension is used rather than the bundled one.

In order to use these functions you must compile PHP with zip support by using the --with-zip[=DIR] configure option, where [DIR] is the prefix of the » ZZIPlib library install.

Windows

Windows users need to enable php_zip.dll inside of php.ini in order to use these functions.

PHP 5.2.0 and later

Linux systems

Windows

Windows users need to enable php_zip.dll inside of php.ini in order to use these functions.
