BROKEN: "does not work with the latest PHP4" Glue interface between PHP and Ruby
Was Maintained by:knu@FreeBSD.org Port Added: 03 Mar 2001 05:58:20 Also Listed In:langruby License: not specified in port
pRuby is a glue code between PHP and Ruby which lets you use Ruby as a
HTML-embedded, server side scripting language. With pRuby, you can
intermix PHP and Ruby to create dynamic web content. For example, you
can call PHP's database and image drawing functions from Ruby and vice
versa. pRuby is often compared to PHP, mod_ruby, eRuby, Erb, mod_perl
and ASP. Key features: better startup speed than CGI and PHP, better
execution speed than PHP, more powerful and less messier to program
than PHP, cross-language function calls and cross-language error
handling.

Use ${ECHO_CMD} instead of ${ECHO} where you mean the echo command; the ECHO
macro is set to "echo" by default, but it is set to "true" if make(1) is
invoked with the -s option while ECHO_CMD is always set to the echo command.
I hate it that I have to make this port directly lib-depend on
databases/mysql323-client, but this seems to be the only and last means to
make it build on bento. *SIGH*
Run-depend on mod_php4. Seems the standalone php (lang/php4) and the apache
module of php4 (www/mod_php4) have discrepant (or just "different")
dependencies.
