PEAR pressure :)

[KarterJK]

Hello to all,
I must be absolutely stupid, but I get so confused about the usage of PEAR...I run a windows machine, so information about install, etc.. is at best vague...

just a couple of questions if anyone has the answers

1. basically as long as i have the pear path example
C:\php4\pear set in my php.ini and enviroment and of course all of the files in that directory.
Then it is installed correct?

assuming the answer is yes...
2. then to load a module it is basically just a php file that I add to my include directory?

3. then to use the module...I then, need to add the following on the php page (file) I was writing, correct?
require once(pear.php)
require once(module_name.php)
.. and any other required files

Is that basically how it all works???

Appreciate any confirmation or explanation

Yes, you are doing all things correct. But if you are having problems with the paths use the full path in your code itself not in the INI and try.

No that was all I wanted to make sure of...
I thought that was correct...

Thanks for the confirmation
