The fact is that we have only a handful of people who do any sort of Windows work while we have hundreds of volunteers for other parts of the project. Unless we get more volunteers interesting in working on Windows-related stuff, you are always going to see a gap between Windows and the rest of the world.
We have many people testing Windows, it is much better now than for a year or so. But we do not even have a handful of people taking care of the firebird extension itself (testing or maintaining it).
Testing pre-built stuff, sure. But building extensions and making them work on Windows is still quite rare. Not that I am criticizing, I don't do it either. I have absolutely zero interest in that platform.
I was referring to testing&maintaining the extension itself, even on only one platform :)
php_interbase gets tested for every build using a number of test suites. Currently as far as I am aware all the previous regression bugs have now been fixed, and the numeric bug has also been cleared so our only problem is why is it not being compiled for PHP5.3? PHP5.2.9 is fine as well as the snapshot for 5.2.10 .... -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
