CodeGen_PECL pear.php.net Tool to generate PECL extensions from an XML description CodeGen_PECL (formerly known as PECL_Gen) is a pure PHP replacement for the ext_skel shell script that comes with the PHP 4 source. It reads in configuration options, function prototypes and code fragments from an XML description file and generates a complete ready-to-compile PECL extension.
