Hello Internals List! For some time now, the PHP_SNMP extension for Windows
has used the dated and no longer supported (in development) UCD-SNMP
libraries. This situation is problematic, as there have been a number of
changes and bug fixes to the extension that require the NET-SNMP libraries.
I have been able to make the php_snmp.dll in Windows utilizing the NET-SNMP
libraries, but had to make changes to the following two files:
config.w32
snmp.dsp
I have attached the two files as reference. However, there remains a
development issue that requires a more skilled programmer to resolve. If I
make the package unaltered, I receive the following two compiler errors:
..\php_build\include\net-snmp\library\system.h(77) : error C2371: 'DIR' :
redefinition; different basic types
c:\msvc\php-5.0.4\TSRM\readdir.h(34) : see declaration of 'DIR'
..\php_build\include\net-snmp\library\system.h(80) : error C2371: 'readdir'
: redefinition; different basic types
c:\msvc\php-5.0.4\TSRM\readdir.h(38) : see declaration of 'readdir'
In order to build the dll file correctly, I edited
<net-snmp/library/utilities.h> and commented out "#include
<net-snmp/library/system.h>", but that appears to be a hack.
I have a bug open in the PHP Bug Database speaking to this issue as follows:
#35696 The function "snmp_set_oid_numeric_print" does not exist on the
Win32 platform
This change will fix multiple annoyances such as the automatic creation of
the "c:/usr/snmp/persist" directory by the php_snmp.dll file, and, as stated
previously, the lack of important php_snmp functions and bug fixes in
Windows.
