[mapserver-users] PHP 4.2.2 and MapScript

[Yewondwossen Assefa]

Hi There,

 Usually dll's produced with one version of pho will not work with other php
versions. The module number (that is used to check compatibility in php when
loading an extarnal module like php/mapscript) changes between each version.
That was the case until now for every release, so I would assume the same thing
between these 2 last releases.

I will be putting a new dll for 4.2.2 in the next week or so on the download
site.
