PHP 4.0 Bug #9361 Updated: C++ compiler causes failures

ID: 9361 Updated by: sas Reported By: amra@us.ibm.com Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Compile Failure Assigned To: Comments: Why would you want to compile a C program using a C++ compiler? There are certain subtle differences in the languages; I don't think it is feasible (if possible at all) to try to make PHP completely buildable using a C++ compiler. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-02-20 17:22:45] amra@us.ibm.com When using a C++ compiler on OS/400, a lot of files fail to compile. (Note that my other bug reports was using a C compiler.) Most of the failures has to do with returned pointers from emalloc, erealloc, malloc and realloc. These functions are returning a void pointer and are not being cast to the data type of the variable receiving the pointer. I hope that this can be changed. Some of the code does cast, but most do not. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
