Assistance Needed with config.w32 and .dsp scripts

[Israel Ekpo]

Hi Everyone,

My name is Israel Ekpo

I am trying to compile the Solr extension on Windows XP using Visual Studio
2008 but I am getting compile errors.

Guillaume Rossolini also tried but he is getting other errors too.

It looks like the Visual Studio compiler is unable to locate a library or
header file.

I compile it find with no issues on Linux.

Please could someone who is  familiar with building PHP 5 extensions on
Windows help us take a look at this situation.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The SVN source is available here

http://svn.php.net/repository/pecl/solr/trunk

Guillaume got this error

configure line with php-5.3-latest revision 290849 (/x86 /xp /Release ):
--disable-all --enable-cli --with-solr=yes --with-curl=yes
--with-libxml=yes

I did not even get this far when I tried.

So any help in the form of changes/recommendations to the config.w32 and
solr.dsp scripts would be highly appreciated.

First, it was getting unresolved externals for libxml and libcurl. nmake  
/N told me those libraries weren't being included in the command line. So  
I manually added them and re-run the command.

Then I got the same linking errors errors when using the static libcurl  
library, but when I used the dll import library the linking errors were  
gone.

I don't know how to fix config.w32 so that those libraries are included in  
the linking step. The linking problem with curl is easy: don't use  
__declspec(dllimport) when using the static lib. Those __imp_* symbols are  
an optimization the compiler uses when importing *DLL* functions. You  
could still drop __declspec(dllimport) when using the DLL, but you would  
have a small performance hit. Checking the header curl.h,  
__declspec(dllimport) can be dropped from the declarations by defining  
CURL_STATICLIB.

Just a small correction. This is original command line:

         "cl.exe" Debug_TS\ext\solr\php_solr.obj  
Debug_TS\ext\solr\php_solr_clien
t.obj Debug_TS\ext\solr\php_solr_document.obj  
Debug_TS\ext\solr\php_solr_excepti
on.obj Debug_TS\ext\solr\php_solr_input_document.obj

  Debug_TS\php_solr.dll.res /link /out:Debug_TS\php_solr.dll /dll /nologo  
/versio
n:5.3.0 /debug /libpath:"\"no\lib\""

Actually, libcurl is here, only libxml is missing. The rest of what I've  
said is unaffected.

Current trunk should work fine as long as you have libxml, curl, iconv
and zlibs deps installed. I also uploaded 5.3 vc9-x86 ts and nts
version of solr here: http://downloads.php.net/pierre/

Cheers,

Pierre and Pierrick,

Thanks a lot once again for helping me out!

I really really appreciate it. You have really helped out a lot of the
windows PHP user space developers that could not use the extension.

I also  thank Kalle and Felipe for their contributions in reviewing the
initial releases of the SOLR module for bugs and compatibility with C++ and
Windows compilers. I am now able to compile it without any warnings.

I will add your 4 names to the next release of the SOLR extension as the
people that made the release happen.

This has also paved way for the 1.0 release which I intentionally postponed
until it was available for the windows platform.

Once again thank you very much.

You guys rock!
