[Php-java-bridge-users] Error compiling...

[<php...@li...>]

I'm trying to compile the dll with the latest php (5.2.1 as it is 
currently on my environment).

The problem is that i'm in position of compiling all the c files, but i 
get errors because the "ZEND_API" isn't defined anywhere in the environment.

Anyone has an hint on how to find it to glue it?

Mind that i'm not a C programmer... but a PHP one... and so hacking in 
the whole environment just to compile the dll has been, well, a rocky 
adventure...

Thanx in advance,
Luis Ferro

you can define it to empty. We've had a patch for it
some time ago. But since sourceforge.net has nuked its
compile server, these files are gone.

At least in 5.0.5 there were three changes necessary
to compile the Zend code with gcc.

I think the easiest way is to use the microsoft
compiler and the make file that comes with php.

I think there is/was a howto in the mailing list
archives.

Why don't you use the pure PHP implementation instead?

Security issues and performance. The platform doesn't allow for 
"external" includes to run. Besides, the performance hit of the pure php 
implementation isn't acceptable for production purposes.

Anyway, i will do as you suggest...

Probably i will just start over from scratch and write a "manual" of 
what i did... From my research on the net, there are loads of "gray" 
areas unanswered, regarding compiling stuff in windows...

BTW is the c version being updated as well? Or it doesn't require any 
update so far?

Thanx for the assistance,
Luis Ferro

Why don't you store the Java.inc into the pear folder?

When a php opcode cache is used, the pure php
implementation is only two times slower than the C
implementation. I don't think this is a problem.

The most expensive part are network round-trips
anyway, which can be avoided by encapsulating the PHP
code with   java_begin_document()/java_end_document().

No surprise. Zend wants to sell their products. :)
