This crate is meant to facilitate creation of custom PHP extensions in Rust. It provides C bindings for all supported PHP versions.
This crate went through a few iterations, for now its a single crate containing all PHP versions as separate modules - this could change in the future.
In the beginning it also was generating Rust bindings on demand. But currently bindings are meant to be pregenerated - to test if the same crate works on OSX and Windows - without having to vendor OSX and Windows PHP headers.
Its possible we'll need to vendor OSX and Windows PHP includes to fully support these platforms.

private crate sys-build can be installed and used to generate binding files
cargo install --path sys-build
cargo php-sys-build # to generate files, should be run from Crates root dir
cargo fmt # to format generated files before commiting
