I don't feel for argue about this. You asked the readers of this list for a comments on weather you were correct or not on weather your bug report was a true bug or not. It is quit obviouse that it is not a bug report. Its more like a "request for change". Period. On your problems with the lack of documentation for compiling DLL's: If you have such a poor compiler documentation which does not tell you how to use feature X when you need to, then I would suggest you to change to a compiler wich actually tells you how to do that - for instance Borland C/C++ or MS C++ devstudio. Another way would be to specify which compiler you use and just ask here on how to do it. -----Original Message----- From: choinet To: php-windows@lists.php.net Sent: 2004-01-03 23:05 Subject: RE: Re: GD2 function issue --- "Svensson, B.A.T.

However, this problem affects way too many people who would use these functions for it simply to be customized for myself. Case in point is, I am still finding a way to resolve this issue. Remember that if it is resolved, functions using the code would be far more portable. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Find out what made the Top Yahoo!
