Re: PHP Extension building issue on Win32

your vs project lib dirs might not configured correctly in visual studio, go to tools/options, go to the directories tab, and show directories for Library files. add a new entry for {path to your build dir}\win32build\lib, and move it to the top of the list. Vincent Graux wrote:

Hello, I followed instructions at http://www.devnewz.com/090902b.html about setting up correctly a VC++ project for building an extension, and I tried to build the provided "hello world" example. Helas, I still get this "unresolved external symbol" kind of linker errors : Compiling... test1.cpp [warnings about externals] Linking... test1.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _zend_printf Release_TS/php_test1.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals Error executing link.exe. Is there anything I missed ? Except that I use VC++ 5 SP3 and php4ts.lib of latest 4.3.7 in stead of VC++ 6 and 4.2, I don't see any meaningful configuration discrepancy... Below the first message that I - apparently wrongly and to no avail - sent to php-internals because I thought it was a Zend Engine settings problem. Any help welcome ; I'm sure a lot of people here can help me by diverting some ticks of their precious brain processing time :D VGR

Even when successfully linking statically to php4ts.lib from latest & stable PHP 4.3.7, I still receive those linking errors and can't get rid of them : --------------------Configuration: bwcache - Win32 Release_TS PHP-------------------- Compiling... bware_cache.c Linking...

Creating browse info file... php_bwcache.dll - 5 error(s), 0 warning(s) ---------------- I upgraded my VC++ 5.0 compiler to SP3 and don't think this is an issue I checked that compiler_globals_id (for instance) is indeed defined in the php4ts.dll (and so should be in the .lib import lib) Any advice welcome on those strange "unresolved externals", Thanks & Regards, VGR Il vaut mieux hasarder de sauver un coupable que de condamner un innocent. -Zadig, Voltaire Jean-Marie Arouet , 1694-1778 -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
