Description
Description
ARG_ENABLE('debug', ...); is defined in two places: phpize.js.in and config.w32.phpize.in.
It makes user not possible to activate --enable-debug on configureing an extension because the latter definition overwrites PHP_DEBUG back to the default false.
The following code:
path\to\phpize
configure.bat --enable-debug --enable-extensionname
Resulted in this output:
---------------------------------------
| Build type | Release |
...
But I expected this output instead:
---------------------------------------
| Build type | Debug |
...

Research direction
Start with the duplicate ARG_ENABLE('debug', ...) definitions in phpize.js.in and config.w32.phpize.in. Run configure.bat --enable-debug --enable-extensionname and inspect the build summary; done means it reports Debug instead of Release when debug is enabled.
