Big fat note: if you're building from a .dsp, you need to replicate
the custom build step that uses MC to generate the message catalog
To make use of this fix, you need to register the event source; running "nmake
install" will handle this for you (if you also build the win32std extension
from pecl).
I'll arrange with Phil to have the installer handle this registration too.
Be paranoid when building a snapshot: if the module is not a core
module (eg: it comes from outside of ext or sapi) and it defaults to "yes",
then force it to become shared. This will prevent a pecl ext from
accidentally being compiled statically into the core, and prevent that
ext from breaking the core build. You can still manually force a static
build by explicitly specifying the args for that extension on your configure
line.
Using it will attempt to switch on any configure options that
were left to their default value of "no".
Add a "snap" target to the makefile which will run a sub-process
to make each SAPI and EXT independently, so that the whole process
does not bail out if a particular extension is broken.
Add a way to specify dependencies between extensions in the
config.w32 files so that the makefile will include appropriate rules
and linkage.
- Add major + minor version to .dll and .exe headers during linking
- Handle pecl build dir correctly when pecl is a sibling of php-src
- try and guess where your cygwin utils are installed (if you have them)
so that we can detect bison, flex etc.
- other little refinements
pecl developers.
Add automatic version info resource generation for SAPI and extension
modules, based on PHP version numbers and info found in the CREDITS file.
As a nice side effect, this lets us add a logo icon to .exe files.
