please guide, how can i do this

Have a look in the documentation: http://www.php-cpp.com/documentation/your-first-extension

After building the yourextension.so there are two ways to include it in your php installation.

1. Load from php.ini

If you don't know where your ini file is:

$ php -i | grep php.ini

Then simply at the bottom at:

[myextension]
extension=/path/to/yourextension.so

2. Custom ini

Or create a custom .ini file something like yourextension.ini and link the extension there.

By running:

$ php --ini

You will find out what folder php is scanning for ini files.

Hope that helps.
