[Swig-devel] [PHP] Incompatibility with ZTS-enabled PHP versions

[Thomas D. <th...@de...>]

Hello,

When one has a ZTS-enabled PHP (Zend Thread Safety) (this is a common case on
Windows, where all the prebuilt PHP binaries have ZTS on), some zend_ functions
take extra arguments (they are probably needed for thread safety). As a result,
the code that SWIG generates can't be compiled.

For example, the examples shipped with Swig fail to compile :


bash-3.00$ php -version
PHP 5.1.2 (cli) (built: Jan 11 2006 16:40:00)

bash-3.00$ grep "define ZTS" /usr/local/include/php/main/php_config.h
#define ZTS 1

bash-3.00$ pwd
/cygdrive/c/webcdg/swig-1.3.28/Examples/php4/simple

bash-3.00$ swig -version
SWIG Version 1.3.28
[...]

bash-3.00$ make
gcc `php-config --includes` -fpic -c example_wrap.c
example_wrap.c: In function `SWIG_Php4_GetModule':
example_wrap.c:852: error: too few arguments to function `zend_get_constant'
[and lots of other errors]


This bug was originally reported at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=653355&group_id=1645&atid=101645
but that ticket was wrongly closed (it's reportedly fixed in 1.3.27 and I'm
using 1.3.28) and I do not have the privileges required to re-open it.

Thanks,
