RE: [PHP] configuring with gd for TTF

If you still can't get it working, post the contents of your config.log file, that can help diagnose it. I figured out a problem with gd 2.0.x not linking properly with PHP 4.0.6 by analyzing the config.log file... -----Original Message----- From: Ray Hilton [mailto:me@rayh.co.uk] Sent: Tuesday, July 03, 2001 3:56 AM To: 'Brian White'; 'Ray Hilton'; 'PHP Mailing List' Subject: RE: [PHP] configuring with gd for TTF Ok, well here goes... I have removed the --enable-gd-native-ttf and --with-freetype-dir (or whatever it was) copied your settings, more or less... Phpinfo() can be found at http://www.rayh.co.uk/downloads/info.php Wish me luck :) -----Original Message----- From: Brian White [mailto:bwhite@steptwo.com.au] Sent: 03 July 2001 09:40 To: Ray Hilton; 'PHP Mailing List' Subject: RE: [PHP] configuring with gd for TTF Ok. Well, given mine works, I thought I would tell you what I have! My phpinfo says exactly the same: GD Support enabled GD Version 1.6.2 or higher FreeType Support enabled FreeType Linkage with TTF library JPG Support enabled PNG Support enabled WBMP Support enabled My configure options were: ./configure --with-gd=/usr/local/src/gd-1.8.4/ --enable-gd-imgstrttf --with-ttf=/usr/local/freetype/ --enable-calendar --disable-short-tags --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/src/jpeg-6b/ --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs gd-1.8.4 is actually compiled ( theoretically ) with freetype2.x support, though that shouldn't be making any difference, I would have thought. Freetype is 1.3. Also, whenever I configured and then compiled I always deleted config.cache and ran "make clean" first. Hope this helps.
