PHP 4.0 Bug #4839: compile fails because stdbool.h is missing

From: phaethon@phaethon.ch Operating system: Debian GNU/Linux (slink) PHP version: 4.0 Latest CVS (06/06/2000) PHP Bug Type: Compile Failure Bug description: compile fails because stdbool.h is missing I posted this already to the php-dev mailing list and the recode module maintainer, but it didn't get any attention. I hope that helps.

But this header file is still fairly new in C standards, and likely does not exist everywhere. If you system does not offer this system header file yet, the proper compilation of the `<recode.h>' file could be guaranteed through the replacement of the inclusion line by: typedef enum {false = 0, true = 1} bool;
