PEAR is a code repository for PHP extensions and PHP library code
|
|
inspired by TeX's CTAN and Perl's CPAN.
|
|
|
|
The purpose of PEAR is:
|
|
|
|
* to provide a consistent means for library code authors to
|
|
share their code with other developers;
|
|
|
|
* to give the PHP community an infrastructure for sharing code;
|
|
|
|
* to define standards that help developers write portable and
|
|
reusable code;
|
|
|
|
* to provide tools for code maintenance and distribution.
|

PEAR comes bundled with PHP4. However, since it is a rapidly evolving
|
|
target, not everyone who has a workable version of PHP4 has a recent
|
|
enough PEAR installation.
