Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-02-12 02:30:31] someone at farpost dot com Version 5.2.5 and VS 2005. Still have this problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-07-22 15:38:01] jani@php.net Wez, can you please check this out, it should be simple fix (for someone who actually has this VC++ thingie) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-07-22 06:43:08] ben dot yan at msn dot com hi, I recompile eAccelerator v0.9.4(http://www.eaccelerator.net/) with the latest PHP(http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz), but the same problems are still there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-06-15 12:47:02] grotaiche at hotmail dot com Yeah, I have the same problem too. I recompile my extension with VS 2005 for every PHP release and I have had the problem for a while. Commenting the #define _USE_32BIT_TIME_T 1 line is not very difficult but it is a by-pass ; a more viable solution would be appreciated :) Thanks ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-06-02 10:52:53] cxd at webpan dot com Trying to compile a module for PHP 5.2.3 with VC++ 2005 SP1 I also get tons of error like: error C2466: cannot allocate an array of constant size 0 This module (eAccelerator for Windows) compiled fine with VC++ 2005 SP1 and PHP 5.2.2. The following might explain the cause of the problem (not sure?) that was (re)introduced with 523( again my module compiles great with PHP 522 & VC++ 2005): ---------------------------------- deprecated "default to int" rule: Pre-standard C++ (and all C variants predating C99), use the "default to int" rule when declarations of functions and variables do not contain an explicit datatype. This behavior is maintained in Visual C++ 6.0 as the following declarations show: const x=0; //implicit int static num; // implicit int myfunc(void *ptr); //implicit return type int In Visual Studio 2005, you have to specify the datatype explicitly: const int x=0; static int num; int myfunc(void *ptr); -------------------- Hope this helps... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
