Please, provide all warnings and/or errors you get. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-10-26 09:41:03] jbarwick at sentienthealth dot com Description: ------------ The entire MBREGEX.C object appears to be written with "pointer address math" using "int" variables. Whereas we all know that with the invent of i586/i686 systems the int veriable is nicely 32 bit, in a 64 bit environment, the pointers and the uint/int objects become completely incompatible. (Am I crazy here?)...or completely stupid? Anyway...lot's of "pointer errors" in mbstring/mbregex. It appears that this module is totally unusable in a 64-bit environment. To FIX, I did the following mbstring/mbregex/mbregex.h #define MINT long #define MLONG long The changed all "int"'s to "MINT" and changed all "long"'s to "MLONG" with a nice search and replace. Compiled with no compiler warnings (retesting make clean/make as we speak). It actually appears that the entire mbstring object must be completely re-written. SOOOO much pointer math using int's and so many "cast from pointer to integer of different size" errors. any chance of getting 4.3.9 or 4.3.10 compilable for 64-bit? I have a lot of work left to fix all the mbstring files that wont compile correctly...errrrg!!! PLEASE someone tell me I can ignore these because the pointer math works even when the compiler complains!! Reproduce code: --------------- compile mbstring/mbregex.c Expected result: ---------------- no compiler warnings about bad pointers Actual result: -------------- compiler warnings about bad pointers ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30558&edit=1
