dBase supoort in the XAMPP version of PHP

[Slyder]

Well the topic pretty much is the question. Does the compilied version of PHP with XAMPP have dBase support?

Thanks for the help.

The dBase extension is a shared library and you must enable it in the "php.ini".

[Slyder]

By enable do you mean uncomment it? like removing the ";"? I recieved an error when running the dBase functions such as "create_dbase()" and wondered if it was compilied into the build?

Yes.

No. It's not compiled in, it's a shared extension (only shared extension you must enable in the php.ini).

I recieved an error when running the dBase functions such as "create_dbase()"

a) you have an error like: "i am at lunch, your PHP interpreter"...

b) there is no function "create_dbase()".

I removed the comment ";"

I only asked if it was compiled due to the comment from http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.dbase.php where it says under installation that "you must compile PHP with the --enable-dbase option."

And as for the command, it's dbase_create() that I was using and recieved a "Fatal Error: Call to undefined function dbase_create()"

But thank you for your help.

You have made this change in the correct php.ini?
--> \xampp\apache\bin\php.ini

Don't forget to restart Apache.

That's for Unix.
