Error during execution of nmake on makefileinYAZ/windirectory

Mike,

In one yazlist posting, it was suggested that certain of the
dll files needed
to be registered.  I executed the regsvr32 command against
both libxml2.dll
and yaz.dll and these messages came back:

"libxml2.dll was loaded, but the DllRegsterServer entry
point was not found.
This file cannot be registered."

"yaz.dll was loaded, but the DllRegsterServer entry
point was not found.
This file cannot be registered."

I have also noticed that in the extensions section of
php.ini, the line
extension=php_yaz.dll  has this comment after it:

"Module makes trouble"

Does this suggest to you that it is fruitless to try to
pursue a XAMPP
installation which includes YAZ?

I am also having a difficult time understanding the section
titled "How to
make apps using YAZ on WIN32" in chapter 2 of the YAZ
manual (Compilation and
Installation), where it says:

"Some people are confused by the fact that we use the
nmake tool to build
YAZ.  They think they have to do that too - in order to make
their WIN32
applications work with YAZ.  The good news is that you don't
have to.  You
can use the integrated environment of Visual Studio if
desired for your own
application." 

What is meant by this?  In my case, I require a running
Apache server, a
running Mysql server, and the ability to execute php files
containing
yaz_connect commands.  I did install Microsoft Visual
Studio, but only so
that I could have access to the nmake command when compiling
YAZ.  Is there
some way I can use Visual Studio instead of what I'm trying
to do with a
XAMPP system?

Thanks.

Larry

Hi, Larry.  Bearing in mind that I know nothing of PHP/YAZ
under
Windows, and am thus busking, here's what I think: the first
error
message suggests that you need to update your libxml2
installation
since you have an old version that lacks the specified entry
point.
And the second error message is probably just caused by the
inability
to resolve the libxml2 calls that php_yaz.dll wants to make.

With luck, a libxml2 upgrade may solve all your problems.

But that's just a pat diagnosis made without first obtaining
your full
medical history.  I could easily be wrong.
