====== embed2 Sapi ======

This is a general purpose SAPI based originally on the (official) embed SAPI of [[php-guy>edink|Edin Kadribasic]].

It feature a lot of enhancement that let you use PHP (4/5) as a scripting engine for your application (Web based or not).

It allow you to use the thread safe fonctionnality by the appropriate use of the API (ie: you can have multiple threads running PHP scripts at the same time).

===== Why ? =====

It's has the same purpose than embed but has a number of advantage other it:
    * More complete API so you don't have to understand Zend/Php internals to add the power of Php to your applications
    * No PHP related header inclusion in the header file
    * Separate global initialisation and request startup initialisation (allow multiple request in any thread)
    * Customisation of input/output callbacks

===== features =====

    * Wrapping of usefull sapi call (startup, exec, eval, ...)
    * Simple thread safe Api (that use the PHP TS mechanism)
    * 2 type of initialisations: SAPI and CLI to allow the integration in any environnement
    * Support GPC and headers output
    * Control over php.ini directives and php.ini path
    * Very basic wrapping of SAPI mechanism (no overhead)
    * Wrapping of usefull PHP features (code highlight, syntax check)
