windows build with libxml and iconv

Hi Rob,

I'm using iconv 1.9.1 and I get problems with _libiconv_version it does'nt
seam to be in the lib file.

If I remove this from the exports I can build and link php4dllts.lib and
php_xls.dll without problems but not php_iconv.dll.

I'll try to resolve this.

I also move the @echo off to the top of the builddef.bat file to avoid
echo's in the def file

Can someone with a clean windows build test the changes for the
libxml/iconv
linking. I believe it is working, but have so many copies of
libxml/libxslt
on my system I cant be 100% sure that it is.

A few things. It currently is exporting all libxml symbols. It looks
like
there may be about 200K difference if we only export those we need, so
any
opinions on full or partial export?
Also still trying to libxml to include all iconv symbols so that iconv
is
not needed in php4dllts.dsp to export its symbols. Not sure if this is
necessary as compiler may be optimizing out the redundant functions.

For Edin's builds we are going to need to seperate libs for the branches
as
these wont work with php 4 - libxml may, but libxslt wont as its static
build is now linked dynamically against libxml.

www.ctindustries.net/patches/winphplibxml.zip
contains the libxml, libxslt as well as iconv files for building. iconv
is
the stock version, but is included for versioning. libxml.dll and
libxslt/libexslt dlls are not needed, as we only need the static libs,
but
are included.
php_libxml2.def needs to be placed in the ext/libxml directory.
libxml is version 2.5.11, libxslt is version 1.0.33 and iconv is version
1.8

diff is only for the debug build right now.
iconv.dsp was changed to link against php4ts_debug.lib for its iconv
symbols. Seems to work though there's still an open bug (#26194) so the
iconv() function isnt working.
xsl.dsp was changed to link against php4ts_debug.lib for its libxml and
iconv symbols
php4dllts.dsp statically links against libxml and iconv.

Edin, hopefully this is what you were looking for.

Rob
