||*()*|| Hi, Nuno.
Do not you mind if I ask you some dummy questions for PHP4?
Nop! I'll try to answer them ;)
Do you know in which cases resolv.lib is required to be recompiled?
Only when resolv.lib is in debug mode and you want to compile PHP in release mode.
So, compiling bindlib in release mode should work in both cases.
What debug version helps to debug and when it is needed?
I think you don't need to build resolv.lib in debug mode.. Usual PHP bugs don't come from here.
Anyway, just open the dsw in Visual Studio and you'll have the option to build it in wither release or debug mode.
Can debug version be the same .lib for W2K and W98?
I can't see any reason why not.
I've build it on Win98 and Win2K - release binaries are the same, so I
guess if we find a way to update win32build.zip the excess requirement
to download bindlib_w32.zip and compile resolv.lib can be removed
completely. Updated version of library is available at
http://php.rainDELMEforce.org with a patch to .dsp to make MSVC search
for this resolv.lib in proposed directory structure.
Well, compiling the bindlib takes less than one minute..
P.S. resolv.lib sources are unchanged for more than two years.
They are bug free :)
