#14499 [Com]: encoding with XSLT problem

ID: 14499 Comment by: axel_kollmorgen@hotmail.com Reported By: douglasd@iprimus.com.au Status: Duplicate Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: windows 2000 PHP Version: 4.1.0 New Comment: this (not having xslt_set_encoding() available on windows because of HAVE_SABLOT_SET_ENCODING not defined in xslt.dsp) finally got fixed - see http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=20640 / http://cvs.php.net/cvs.php/php4/ext/xslt/xslt.dsp#rev1.3 . i had almost lost hope ... nice. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-27 09:41:17] ax@condat.de please note: the php_xslt.dll mentioned in my previous post only works with php-4.1.2 (or was it 4.1.1?) and the mentioned sablotron binaries (sablot.dll etc) replacing the default ones! @ tim@zero-interactive.com: if you want xslt_set_encoding() to work on a php windows version of your choice, you have to get the mentioned sablotron binaries and recompile the php_xslt.dll with HAVE_SABLOT_SET_ENCODING set. get the php sources, open php4\ext\xslt\xslt.dsw, add "HAVE_SABLOT_SET_ENCODING" to project options > c/c++ > preprocessor definitions, and go. @ k.schroeder@php.net: i dont think this is the same as #14965: that one is about files not found, this one here is about HAVE_SABLOT_SET_ENCODING not compiled into the dll. @ the php developers / windows binaries packager: again - i would highly recommend to include the appropriate changes (sablotron dll's with encoding support; HAVE_SABLOT_SET_ENCODING defined) into the next windows binary release. this error is really frustrating for windows users because most of them dont have the possibility to recompile php. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-02 16:04:35] k.schroeder@php.net Same problem as #14965. Regards, Kai ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-02 00:19:42] tim@zero-interactive.com Same problem occurs with PHP 4.2.0 on Win2K. Updating with the proposed dll by ax@condat.de doesn't fix it either. Neither does setting the encoding in the xml and/or the xslt file. Sorry Sterling, but I'd say it definitely is a bug ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-28 15:29:44] ax@condat.de i run into the same problem with the php-4.1.1/2 windows binaries. i tried to solve the problem by getting the latest sablotron binaries for windows (http://www.gingerall.com/charlie/ga/xml/d_sab.xml) - which do include encoding support - but still got the "xslt_set_encoding() is not supported in this PHP build". a look into the sources revealed the problem: ext\xslt\sablot.c #ifdef HAVE_SABLOT_SET_ENCODING PHP_FE(xslt_set_encoding, NULL) #else PHP_FALIAS(xslt_set_encoding, warn_not_available, NULL) #endif etc. so i recompiled php_xslt with #define HAVE_SABLOT_SET_ENCODING - and voila - it works perfectly! (fyi: the dll is available from http://kollm.org/php_xslt/php_xslt.dll) as windows user typically dont compile php - they get the windows binaries and expect them to work ;) - i would recommend to include the appropriate changes (sablotron dll's with encoding support; HAVE_SABLOT_SET_ENCODING defined) into the next binary release. this error is really frustrating for windows users because most of them dont have the possibility to recompile php. thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-14 11:59:35] sterling@php.net In order to use utf-8 you must set the encoding from within your <?xml ?> block.. If you want to use the xslt_set_encoding() function than you must compile sablotron itself with encoding support. not a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
