Description:
------------
Trying to use PHP 5.3 (and 5.4) with the current FreeTDS 0.91 results in the following error message:

In file included from php-5.4.0RC1/ext/mssql/php_mssql.c:33:
php-5.4.0RC1/ext/mssql/php_mssql.h:69: error: redefinition of typedef 'LPBYTE'
include/sqlfront.h:35: note: previous declaration of 'LPBYTE' was here

It seems that FreeTDS expects PHP_MSSQL_API to be defined which isn't anymore as of PHP 5.3. Simply adding "#define PHP_MSSQL_API" to ext/mssql/php_mssql.h in line 24 solves this error...

I'm not sure whether this should be considered a PHP or FreeTDS problem...

Regards
Oliver

strange...

I just tried it again with fresh copies from scratch resulting in the same error.

I simply configured PHP with

./configure --prefix=$HOME/install --with-mssql=$HOME/install

and the make ended with

In file included from /home/oliver/source/php-5.3.9RC1/ext/mssql/php_mssql.c:33:
/home/oliver/source/php-5.3.9RC1/ext/mssql/php_mssql.h:68: error: redefinition of typedef 'LPBYTE'
/home/oliver/install/include/sqlfront.h:35: note: previous declaration of 'LPBYTE' was here

Are you using an altered version of any of those two packages by chance?

!!!!php 5.2.17 WORKING!!!!

I checked the information, the reporter is right. FreeTDS was relying in the PHP_MSSQL_API which was removed from PHP in 2008 without the knowning about this check from FreeTDS. I'll restore the #define PHP_MSSQL_API again when using FreeTDS.

In this case i just resolved by comment the declaration line of mentioned LPBYTE in /usr/local/src/php-5.3.8/ext/mssql/php_mssql.h:68, that is already decleared in /usr/local/freetds//include/sqlfront.h, after that make works fine
and give me the mssql.so compiled,

php Version 5.3.3-7+squeeze13
