Do you mean PHP scripts or a module for PHP itself?
Assuming the former, there is ioncube ( www.ioncube.com) but I've never used
it. I *have* had the displeasure of attempting to test a software package
that was using it and it took over a month for the vendor to figure out they
were encoding their source incorrectly so that it was not possible to even
install their package.

You can use the Zend Encoder: http://www.zend.com/store/products/zend-encoder.php
it starts at $960
If you are a new company that doesn't make allot of money Zend has
programs that are aimed at helping small businesses. You can apply for
there small business program at http://www.zend.com/store/products/zend-smallbiz.php.
if you qualify you can get a bundle of software which includes the Zend
Encoder for $295 which I personally think is a great deal considering I
bought the ZDE alone for $250.
I do not work for, nor am I affiliated with Zend.

There are several encoders for some time that offer some level of
protection.
Meanwhile there is a real PHP compiler that generates shared libraries
that completely replace the need for PHP runtime. http://www.roadsend.com/

You could keep it running at your own server. You could also try obsfucating
the code, but that wont do it in the long run.

Hi all,
I am writing a small PHP accounting and office management application and would like to learn how to
"package" it for distribution. It requires the use of a small MySQL database which is my main
concern. How do I distribute that...and insure that it can be used, i.e., having the proper MySQL
services running.
Any comments or direction to sources of info will be greatly appreciated...
Thanks in Advance,

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
