Bug #29994 mysqli error while bulding php 5.2.3

Description:
Trying to compile PHP after installing 5.1.20 beta (used to compile just fine with mysql 5.1.18 beta) gives this error after "make":

/tmp/php-5.2.3/ext/mysqli/mysqli_api.c: In function `zif_mysqli_stmt_bind_param':
/tmp/php-5.2.3/ext/mysqli/mysqli_api.c:144: error: `gptr' undeclared (first use in this function)
/tmp/php-5.2.3/ext/mysqli/mysqli_api.c:144: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
/tmp/php-5.2.3/ext/mysqli/mysqli_api.c:144: error: for each function it appears in.)
/tmp/php-5.2.3/ext/mysqli/mysqli_api.c: In function `zif_mysqli_stmt_execute':
/tmp/php-5.2.3/ext/mysqli/mysqli_api.c:603: error: `gptr' undeclared (first use in this function)
make: *** [ext/mysqli/mysqli_api.lo] Error 1

How to repeat:
install mysql-5.1.20 beta
configure and make php-5.2.3

Thank you for the report.

Verified as described using last BK sources.

Category changed to not correct, but more appropriate.

The problem is mysqli_api.c, because it used gptr, which is no more in the latest 5.1 versions. The fix will appear as part of 5.2.4. If you need to build 5.2.3, search and replace in mysqli_api.c `gtpr` with `char*`

Thanks

Hello,

fix worked for me. Thanks.
But you have to search for 'gptr' :)

Bye.
