#28252 [Opn]: ncurses support without a cygwin install.

ID: 28252 Updated by: helly@php.net Reported By: testic at testic dot demon dot co dot uk Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Win32 PHP Version: 4.3.4 New Comment: Why not simply compile PHP under cygwin too? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-05-02 14:53:50] testic at testic dot demon dot co dot uk Description: ------------ I am working on an application written in PHP that uses the ncurses functions, I would like this application to work on win32 machines also. However, I dont want the users required to have a fullblown cygwin install (this is fiddly at best, and win32 users....). I have seen applications written in C for Unix that make use of cygwin.dll and/or cygwindevo.dll, presumably to get Unix-like functionality on Windows, however I have been unable to make any use of this with PHP. So really my request could be summarised thus: Ncurses functioning 'natively' under Win32, without the need for cygwin, preferably implemented using an extension dll as per other PHP extensions in Windows. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28252&edit=1
