# Compiling shared PECL extensions with PEAR

PEAR makes it easy to create shared PHP extensions. Using the pear command, do the following:

    $ pear install extname

That will download the source for extname, and compile it on the system. This results in an `extname.so` file that may then be included in `php.ini`

In case the systems preferred_state is set higher than an available extname version, like it's set to stable and the extension is still in beta, either alter the preferred_state via pear config-set or specify a specific version of the PECL extension. For example:

    $ pear install extname-0.1.1

Regardless, pear will copy this `extname.so` into the extensions directory. Adjust `php.ini` accordingly.
