1. What does phpize do?
What is phpize? PHP official description:

phpize is used to extend php extension modules. Through phpize, you can create php plug-in modules

For example, if we now want to add the memcache extension module to php: all we have to do is the following steps
——————————————————————
tar zxvf memcache-2.2.5.tgz
cd memcache-2.2.5/
/usr/local/webserver/php/bin/phpize
./configure –with-php-config=/usr/local/webserver/php/bin/php-config
make
make install

Note that what can be specified after ./configure is the path to the php-config file
The compilation is complete. What still needs to be done is to add the extension value
to the php.ini file.extension = “memcache.so”
