How would you suggest to do it? Well you said in reply to my "bug"-report that the capacity for "long" on *my* platform was exceeded. I assume that the configure script checks this length somewhere and/or that the Zend code has proper typedefs for it. I could look into it myself if no one else can be bothered with it =) Regards, -- Wessel Dankers, who is not on this list and would appreciate a Cc: of any replies =)
