What steps should be taken to ensure compatibility between the PHP version and the C library?

To ensure compatibility between the PHP version and the C library, it is important to check the version of PHP being used and ensure that the C library being linked is compatible with that version. This can be done by checking the PHP version and the C library version requirements and making any necessary updates or changes to ensure compatibility.

if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '7.0.0', '<')) {
    die('PHP version 7.0.0 or higher is required');
}

// Check compatibility with C library
// Make necessary updates or changes here
