Subject: DLL export request
From: mes@zeroc.com ("Mark Spruiell")

Hi,

I'm prototyping a PHP5 extension creates user classes dynamically.
This (mostly) works, although it's apparent that PHP isn't really
expecting this type of activity.

I did encounter problems when trying to build this extension on Windows,
however, because the following functions are not exported from the PHP
DLL:

zend_do_inheritance
zend_initialize_class_data

Are there any objections to exporting these functions so that they can be
used by extensions?

Thanks,
- Mark Spruiell
