php_printer 5.5.11 Working!

Postby pylonx » 24. June 2014 23:31

Hello, Apache Friends, and Friends of Apache Friends,

I'm one of the IT crew for a chain of sporting goods retail stores. And I am also lucky enough to get to code php from time to time for miscellaneous applications for our business. I have nearly no experience compiling anything. I was able to rebuild the php_printer.dll for 5.4.7 with all your help here: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=53348 . So, this is my attempt to reperform this task for 5.5.11

Xampp: 1.8.3
PHP 5.5.11
OSes:
Windows Server 2012 R2 64bit
Windows 7 Pro 64bit

The guide I Heavily used in this process:
https://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild

I downloaded the Express Version of Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop. Also Installed it on my Windows Server 2012 Machine.
Link (2014-06-24): http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download ... x?id=34673

Then I downloaded one of the PhP snapshots (I did nothing with this yet)
Link (2014-06-24): http://snaps.php.net/index.php?branch=5.5
I wasn't sure which, Not experienced so I went with "php5.5-201406241830.tar.gz"

I downloaded php-sdk-binary-tools-20110915.zip from http://windows.php.net/downloads/php-sdk/
I unpacked this file into the c:\php-sdk folder I had just created.

I then Went to the start screen and typed
Code: Select all
VS2012 x86 Native Tools Command Prompt


When the application popped up I opened it. And Proceeded with the following instructions:
Code: Select all
cd c:\php-sdk\
bin\phpsdk_setvars.bat
bin\phpsdk_buildtree.bat phpdev


I opened the php-sdk\phpdev folder expecting to see vc11 but only see vc6, vc8 and vc9. So, already feeling like this is going to fail. I just create a vc11 folder in hopes that something awesome will happen. Then I coppied the content of vc9 to the vc11 folder as they just seemed like skelleton place older folders.

I unpacked the php5.5-201406241830.tar.gz I downloaded earlier with 7zip and loaded it into C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86

So it looked like : C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php5.5-201406241830\
I am suspecting that I should just unload the content of php5.5-201406241830 into the x86 folder. But trying not to assume anything just yet.

I then download the following from http://windows.php.net/downloads/php-sdk/:
deps-5.5-vc11-x64.7z
deps-5.5-vc11-x86.7z

Trying the x86 version first, again feeling like I'm flying blind. I unloaded it into deps folder this time not doing x86\deps\deps\~ but x86\deps\~.

I remembered from last time I tried doing this that I had to grab the printer files
http://svn.php.net/repository/pecl/printer/trunk/

And from last time I know I needed to change something in the printer.c file
"Open 'printer.c' and replace all instances of 'pval' with 'zval' and it should compile."

I put those files into C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php5.5-201406241830\ext\printer

I then proceeded with the following code commands in the "VS2012 x86 Native Tools Command Prompt"
Code: Select all
cd c:\php-sdk\phpdev\vcXX\x86\php5.5-201406241830
buildconf
configure --enable-printer=shared


It returned with Unknown option enable-cli. So, I removed that and tried again.
Code: Select all
c:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php5.5-201406241830>configure --disable-all --enable-
printer=shared
Saving configure options to config.nice.bat

I did a quick google search and found:
http://bobobobo.wordpress.com/2008/05/2 ... mpile-php/

and downloaded bison and flex
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gnuwin ... .1-bin.zip
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/downlin ... in-zip.php

No idea where to put them I looked for where nmake.exe was located on my c:\ and found it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\bin

So I unloaded both my downloaded zips into that folder respectively and hoping beyond hope that everything plays nice.

And BAM:
Code: Select all
c:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php5.5-201406241830>configure --enable-printer=shared

Type 'nmake' to build PHP

c:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php5.5-201406241830>


So, I checked out the "C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php5.5-201406241830\Release_TS\ext" directory and found the printer folder. However it was empty.

I realized I forgot to nmake
Code: Select all
nmake


Watching it go through all the .c files trying to watch for printer or php_printer. I gave up and just let it run.

While letting it run I forgot I had problems last time with the php version. I checked the old notes and found that I really do neet to be nitpicky about the version of php I use.

http://www.oldapps.com/php_programming_ ... _php=14569

I then grapped PHP 5.5.11 to match the php version in the Xampp I am using. I will be putting it in the C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\ folder and re-run the rest of the steps.

I do see that there is a php_printer.dll in the Release_TS folder. So, I know it is mostly working now.

Going back to do all the above steps with the correct php build version. I will let you know how it turns out. I hope this will succeed and be helpful for others. I will reply to this post if I have an issue and add a link to the finished php_printer.dll for 5.5.11 if I get it working. Done working on this project for today. Not enough time to finish and test. Will reply to this post with my results tomorrow.

Thank you!
