Re: A minimal php5ts.dll

O.K., the newer nmake definitely made a difference. I'm geting close. I have the object files already compiled and the problem is with link.exe now. I suspect the mix of new and old library versions may be the problem. My recent notes: * Changed nmake from 1.5 to 6.0.8168.0 and got past the first problems. * The --disable-zts flag was giving compilation errors in php_win32_globals.h. After removing the flag I could compile the object files. * Got errors RC2144, 2135, 2164 in template.rc. That was easy. I just commented out everything. I assume this is harmless. * FYI, I got quite a few warning messages during compilation (things like "conversion of double to int", "benign redefinition", "signed/unsigned mismatch" and others). * Some missing libraries and executables brought from outside MSVCToolkit / WinSDK: bison.exe, flex.exe, resolve.lib and msvcrt.lib. are pretty old (1998-2000). * Unresolved external symbols: __ftol2, __alldvrm, __pctype and ___mb_cur_max. I googled for __ftol2 and I found it to be related to different MSVC versions and msvcrt.lib which is not included in the WinSDK. (Why?). I manually added /QIfist to CFLAGS, recompiled everything and it seems that __ftol2 was solved, but the other three are still pending. I promise to write a mini-tutorial if I can make this work :) Thanks in advance. ------------------- Rubem Pechansky WinBinder - The native Windows binding for PHP http://winbinder.sourceforge.net/ Hypervisual - Advanced Design for IT http://hypervisual.com/
