Bug #52316 [Wfx]: Macro redefinition with Visual Studio 2010

Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52316&edit=1 ID: 52316 Updated by: pajoye@php.net Reported by: hendrik dot schmieder at jedox dot com Summary: Macro redefinition with Visual Studio 2010 Status: Wont fix Type: Bug Package: Compile Warning Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.2.13 Assigned To: pajoye New Comment: What are you talking about? You ask something that we can't fix at this stage. I don't think it is so hard to understand (last RC and only critical fixes go to 5.2 from now on). We also always claimed, advertised and documented that the only compiler we support for 5.2 is VC6. Now, about windows and php, if you are serious about that, then I strongly suggest you to move to 5.3. Windows support is much better with 5.3, regular updates for the libraries, better portability, faster, more stable. And it supports modern VC versions.

We do not support them either. 5.3 supports both VC6 and more recent compilers (we use VC9 and test with VC10). Next major version will support only one (be 5.3 or 6.0). 5.2.14 is in RC phase (last one) and only very critical changes can be applied. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-07-13 10:06:53] hendrik dot schmieder at jedox dot com There was never a problem compiling php extensions with VS2003 and VS2005 and php version < 5.3. For PHP we use the supplied binaries. Why is it so difficult to made the proposed change. This can be done in less than one minute. Just for the upcoming 5.2.14 version. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-07-13 09:38:33] pajoye@php.net Let me rephrase: 5.2 supports only VC6. That means you can try with 5.3 (which should be fixed). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-07-13 09:36:46] hendrik dot schmieder at jedox dot com I speak about 5.2.x and in 5.2.14RC2 it is still not fixed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
