Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74904&edit=1 ID: 74904 Updated by: ab@php.net Reported by: john dot woods at greatplainsmfg dot com Summary: zend_operators.h: Error: The function "isfinite" must have a prototype. -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Type: Bug Package: Compile Failure Operating System: Solaris 11.3.21.5.0 (x86-64) PHP Version: 7.1.7 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: @john, please check the latest dev branches with C++11 and up. A fix was pushed. Thanks. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-07-11 19:48:45] john dot woods at greatplainsmfg dot com Supporting a diversity of platforms, like Windows, Linux, Solaris, and other Unix variants is actually a strength. I'm not going to argue with you any further about choice of platforms/compilers, because it's simply not helpful to the PHP community at-large. In short, if you don't care about using Solaris, you (personally) don't have to. Please just go away, and let others provide *constructive* input that helps PHP continue to be an awesome cross-platform development tool. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-07-11 19:23:16] spam2 at rhsoft dot net well, use a state-of-the-art operating system or if you want to stick with outdated environments just use outdated PHP - as always you have to make decisions currently PHP 5.6 works, 7.0.x has active support and so you hav etime to make your decisions ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-07-11 19:00:14] john dot woods at greatplainsmfg dot com Upgrading to Solaris Studio 12.6 did not resolve the issue. Unfortunately, C++ 03 (-std=sun03) is the default still for Solaris Studio, so as a sysadmin, I have no choice but to roll with it. How do we sucessfully force the compiler to C++ 14? When I try just using the switch "-std=c++14", the compiler throws errors like this: "/opt/developerstudio12.6/lib/compilers/CC-gcc/include/c++/5.4.0/bits/basic_string.h", line 5300: Error: Could not find a match for __gnu_cxx::__to_xstring<_String, _CharT>(extern "C" int(*)(char*,unsigned long,const char*,__va_list_element*), unsigned long, const char[3], int) needed in std::to_string(int). "/opt/developerstudio12.6/lib/compilers/CC-gcc/include/c++/5.4.0/ext/string_conversions.h", line 83: Note: Candidate 'std::string __gnu_cxx::__to_xstring<std::string, char>(int(*)(char*,unsigned long,const char*,__va_list_tag*), unsigned long, const char*, ...)' is not viable: argument '__convf' can't be converted from 'extern "C" int(*)(char*,unsigned long,const char*,__va_list_element*)' to 'int(*)(char*,unsigned long,const char*,__va_list_tag*)'. I'm going to continue working towards a resolution as well, but the fix is elusive currently. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-07-11 16:31:06] john dot woods at greatplainsmfg dot com Yes, I did read the comments on that bug, and a patch that worked was committed, and is present in 7.1.7. Yet, we get a similar message. It's fundamentally a different issue, since this is C++, not C. As for the compiler, I'll upgrade from Solaris Studio 12.5 to 12.6, and see if that resolves the issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2017-07-11 16:13:05] spam2 at rhsoft dot net and while you say "I don't believe this is a duplicate of Bug #74265" did you read the comments? [2017-05-03 05:23 UTC] rasmus@php.net gcc version 4.1.2 ?? That compiler is over 10 years old. You are probably going to need to add -std=c99 to your build flags to get it to work on any modern codebase, or for heaven's sake, upgrade to a compiler from this decade. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
