Add Windows platform support #1

Closed lisachenko closed 4 years ago

lisachenko commented 4 years ago

Currently this library uses some exported functions for hashes and opcode handler manipulation. Unfortunately, under Windows platform, PHP uses __vectorcall convention which is not supported by libffi, thus symbol can't be resolved.

This issue can be solved in two ways: by adding support for __vectorcall convention in libffi or by writing hash functions from scratch, which is not easy task right now.

Related to the https://github.com/libffi/libffi/issues/500 and described as bug at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78270&edit=2

Partial support of __vectorcall was added in the snapshot: https://windows.php.net/downloads/snaps/ostc/ffi-vectorcall/

Thus, library can work with Windows platform too 👍 Need to add simple macros resolving for defintions, as well, as loading of php7.dll for Windows platform

This issue can be resolved right now, waiting for the merge of patch by @cmb69 into the libffi and PHP itself.
