PHP 5.2.3 and libxml compile failure on Win32 View as Markdown

Hi,

I don't really know that windows stuff but did you try building PHP
using Edins zip.zip file or your own libxml2? Maybe the libs have some
compatibility issues.

And about the other question: All XML extensions in PHP 5 are based on
libxml2. If you disable building libxml2 support you can't have any of
these compiled in.

Hi All

We are having a problem compiling PHP 5.2.3 under win32.

Building PHP on Win32 using VS2005 following the instructions at
http://hu2.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.building.php the build fails
unless libxml support is disabled.

If it is configured as

cscript /nologo configure.js --enable-embed --enable-debug --without-libxml

then the build is ok. But in this case calls to xml_parser_create() results
fatal error in the PHP scripts BTW should disabling libxml also disables
simplexml?.

When it is built with libxml support as

cscript /nologo configure.js --enable-embed --enable-debug

then the compiler fails with errors like

Libxml is built and the headers and the libs are placed to the win32build
folder, we are currently trying to build against libxml 2.6.2.26

Can anyone point us in the right direction to get this resolved?

Thanks in advance
