Bug #17977: session can't be built shared with PHP

From: list@firehawksystems.com Operating system: FreeBSD 4.3, but any unix PHP version: 4.2.1 PHP Bug Type: *Compile Issues Bug description: session can't be built shared with PHP I have been trying to build session support as a shared extension and here is what I have found. It works fine if you us the phpize, ./configure, make method, but if you try building it shared while building PHP it will not work. ./configure --with-layout=GNU --enable-session=shared --with-mm=shared <snip> (it works) make <snip>(while compiling main/internal_functions.c) internal_functions.c:47: `phpext_ps_mm_ptr' undeclared here (not in a function) internal_functions.c:47: initializer element is not constant internal_functions.c:47: (near initialization for `php_builtin_extensions[6]') --- internal_functions.c --- zend_module_entry *php_builtin_extensions[] = { phpext_xml_ptr, phpext_standard_ptr, phpext_posix_ptr, phpext_pcre_ptr, phpext_mysql_ptr, phpext_ctype_ptr, phpext_ps_mm_ptr, }; It seems that phpext_ps_mm_ptr gets added if --with-mm or --with-mm=shared is set. Adding it with --with-mm=shared is bad as it is not needed and doesn't include the right headers for that function anyway. I have created a patch to fix this, but wanted to make sure this was the best way to fix it. Is there a better way? Comments? Thanks, Brian BTW, ./configure --with-layout=GNU --enable-session=shared --with-mm=no and ./configure --with-layout=GNU --enable-session=shared --without-mm will not build it shared either, but I am not worried about that. ---------------- Patch --- php-4.2.1/configure Mon Jun 24 14:15:58 2002 +++ php-4.2.1/configure Mon Jun 24 14:16:36 2002 @@ -57197,9 +57197,9 @@ #define HAVE_LIBMM 1 EOF - - EXTRA_MODULE_PTRS="$EXTRA_MODULE_PTRS phpext_ps_mm_ptr," - + if test "$ext_shared" != "yes"; then + EXTRA_MODULE_PTRS="$EXTRA_MODULE_PTRS phpext_ps_mm_ptr," + fi fi if test "$PHP_SESSION" != "no"; then -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17977&edit=1 -- Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17977&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17977&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17977&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17977&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17977&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17977&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17977&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17977&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=17977&r=globals
