[rrd-developers] [rrd-users] rrdtool php extension

[Benny Baumann]

Hi,

after a short discussion with Rick off-list we ran into a small issue
with BC with the latest php_rrdtool extension where I'm not quite sure
how older versions handled it.

Since 1.2.27 to 1.3.999 there seem to be some changes for:
- DNAN (where's that in older versions? rrd_nan something missing?)
- The rrd_info interface seems to miss some definitions (the mentioned
RD_I_constants, where are they?)

What has to be done to make the ext compatible with 1.2.27?

I missed that in my version; added it locally now.

Maybe Tobi can help out here ...

Usually everything except rrd_dump from the extension should work before
1.3.999 as rrd_dump uses the rrd_dump_cb_r function introduced recently
(in 1.3.999). For earlier versions rrd_dump simply returns false for
every request. All other functions usually should work.

hmmm, that one worked for me just fine (Debian Testing, RRDTool 1.3.8,
PHP 5.2.10)

As asked previously a backtrace with enabled debug symbols might help
solve the mystery where it crashed.
