Description:
------------
I installed freetds version 0.62.4 on some debian sarge system, using
./configure --prefix=/usr/freetds --enable-msdblib --with-tdsver=8.0 --enable-shared
echo "/usr/freetds/lib" >> /etc/ld.so.conf ; ldconfig
FreeTDS work ok.
I then tried to compile php with
... --with-mssql=/usr/freetds ...
and to link it against freetds resulting in :

In file included from /root/php-4.3.8/ext/mssql/php_mssql.c:33:
/root/php-4.3.8/ext/mssql/php_mssql.h:41: error: redefinition of `SHORT'
/usr/freetds/include/sybdb.h:117: error: `SHORT' previously declared here
make: *** [ext/mssql/php_mssql.lo] Fehler 1

I commented out the line 41 in ext/mssql/php_mssql.h,
which is only a typdef short SHORT;, and it then worked,
as expected.

Compiler Version used is :
Lese Spezifikationen von /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3.4/specs
Konfiguriert mit: ../src/configure -v --enable-languages=c,c++,java,f77,pascal,objc,ada,treelang --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/3.3 --enable-shared --with-system-zlib --enable-nls --without-included-gettext --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-debug --enable-java-gc=boehm --enable-java-awt=xlib --enable-objc-gc i486-linux
Thread-Modell: posix
gcc-Version 3.3.4 (Debian 1:3.3.4-3)



Reproduce code:
---------------
Any

Expected result:
----------------
Should compile

Actual result:
--------------
Does not compile

it's not a freetds-Problem - the mssql-extentions in php-4.3.7, 4.3.8 causes the errors - try php-5.0.0 or 4.3.6

mh.
Ok, now I really know what PHP is all about.

Use PHP 5 ? An older release ?

Hi, downlaod the laest snap and copy the ext/mssql folder to your php-4.3.8 folder. I just compiled php-4.3.9dev (latest snap - 200408100430 -) with freetds-0.62.4 it wokrs fine! No Errors. HTH
