It's not a typedef but the struct itself that's provided, so that doesn't work.

    I'm curious.  The following code works here.

    struct foo { int a; };
    typedef struct foo php_sysmsg;

    What did not work for you?

Yes - it sounds logical, but we we're back to the old problem. Calling a sizeof on an unfinished type. I placed the #ifdefs, in the header, the global scope of the c file, and the function bodies and none worked. I also checked gcc -E preprocessor output and all looked in order. I might have overlooked something though.

It boils down to:

    Please remove the mymsg part.  It is not required and might
    cause problems later on (e.g. mysql uses the my prefix as
    well).

Good point - but also raises, whether to look for this struct in the first place. Why not skip it all, and define it ISO C compliant, in php_ namespace? Met vriendelijke groeten / With kind regards, Webmaster IDG.nl Melvyn Sopacua
