bcompiler_write_function

(PECL)

Reads the bytecodes from PHP for an existing function, and writes them to
the open file handle. Order is not important, (eg. if function b uses
function a, and you compile it like the example below, it will work
perfectly OK).

A file handle as returned by fopen().

The function name, as a string.

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Example 1. bcompiler_write_function() example

$fh = fopen("/tmp/example","w");
bcompiler_write_header($fh);
bcompiler_write_function($fh,"my_function_a");
bcompiler_write_function($fh,"my_function_b");
bcompiler_write_footer($fh);
fclose($fh);

This function is
EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, the
name of this function, and anything else documented about this
function may change without notice in a future release of PHP.
Use this function at your own risk.
