libcouchbase reports complie error when building 64-bit DLL on Windows

[Aslan Love]

Hi All

I just build libcouchbase successfully on Windows with 32-bit
configuration according to the instructions of Trond Norbye's blog:
http://blog.couchbase.com/libcouchbase-and-Windows

But when building libcouchbase with 64-bit configuration, the complier
reports the compile error:

cl.exe /O2 /DNDEBUG /MD /LD /Iinclude /Iwin32 /Icontrib /I..\deps
\includ
e /Isrc /I. /nologo /W3 /EHsc /DWIN32 /FD /c -D_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS
-DLIBCOUC
HBASE_INTERNAL=1 /Fo"src\arithmetic.obj" src\arithmetic.c
arithmetic.c
contrib\http_parser/http_parser.h(41) : error C2371: “size_t”:
redefination；different base type
src\arithmetic.c : reference the declaration of “size_t”
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: “"d:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
9.0\VC\BI
N\x86_amd64\cl.exe"”: return code “0x2”
Stop

It seems there exists a type redefination of size_t. Does anyone
encounter that same problem? Or is libcoucebase not build for 64-bit
Windows now?

Thanks

It is supposed to work, so you are probably hitting a bug. I dont have access to a windows machine right now to fix it.

Thanks for reporting it.

This is part of external library we are using to parse HTTP stream,
could you verify it is working standalone?

$ git clone https://github.com/joyent/http-parser
$ cd http-parser
$ make test

It reports that all is ok (on my linux)

$ make test
./test_g
sizeof(http_parser) = 40
response scan 1/2 100%
response scan 2/2 100%
responses okay
request scan 1/4 100%
request scan 2/4 100%
request scan 3/4 100%
request scan 4/4 100%
requests okay
./test_fast
sizeof(http_parser) = 32
response scan 1/2 100%
response scan 2/2 100%
responses okay
request scan 1/4 100%
request scan 2/4 100%
request scan 3/4 100%
request scan 4/4 100%
requests okay

The http-parser itself is working ok.
The compliation error is reported when building with VS2008.
I build it under VS2010 an hour ago and it builds successfully.

So I suspect the reason for the complie error under VS2008 is the
proprecessor macro in http_parser.h:

#if defined(_WIN32) && !defined(__MINGW32__) && (!defined(_MSC_VER) ||
_MSC_VER<1600)
typedef __int8 int8_t;
typedef unsigned __int8 uint8_t;
typedef __int16 int16_t;
typedef unsigned __int16 uint16_t;
typedef __int32 int32_t;
typedef unsigned __int32 uint32_t;
typedef __int64 int64_t;
typedef unsigned __int64 uint64_t;

typedef unsigned int size_t;
typedef int ssize_t;
#else
#include <stdint.h>
#endif

When building with VS2008, it's the "#if" block that executes, which
redifines the size_t type.
But with 32-bit configuration, it builds ok.

I commented the two lines that redifines size_t and ssize_t, and it
can build successful.
Why does the http-parser need to enforce the size_t to be unsigned
int? When building with 64-bit configuration, the size_t which is
precedingly defined in <stddef.h> is indeed __int64, which will
conflict with the redefinition here.

I submitted the patch on gerrit to allow someone explicitly say that
it isn't break anything on windows
