If you have multiple/specific PHP versions installed, you may be able to specify for which installation you'd like to build by using the --with-php-config option during configuration. For example:

git clone git://github.com/zephir-lang/php-zephir-parser.git
cd php-zephir-parser
/usr/local/bin/phpize
./configure --with-php-config=/usr/local/bin/php-config
make
sudo make install

Add the extension to your php.ini:

extension=zephir_parser.so

Usage

$program = <<<EOF
namespace Acme;

class Greeting
{
    public static function sayHello() -> void
    {
        echo "Hello, World!";
    }
}
EOF;

$retval = zephir_parse_file($program, '(eval code)');

var_dump($retval);
