msplugin_mssql2008 problems on Windows with MapServer 5.2.1

[jmckenna]

With MapServer the 5.2.1 release, when trying to use the msplugin_mssql2008 dll in a layer I get the following error:

loadCustomLayerDLL: General error message. Failed to load dynamic Layer LIB: E:/ ms4w/Apache/specialplugins/msplugin_mssql2008.dll <br> msGetSymbol(): General error message. Can't find requested entry point: PluginIn itializeVirtualTable in lib MZÉ <br>

This error is very similar to one fixed a few months ago by Assefa: ticket:7918

Since that fix there were 3 additional changes to this plugin code...so could that be causing a problem?

(Tamas I see you made changes to the plugin, can you possibly comment on this error?)

thanks.

sorry it seems this is my own fault: i had committed a makefile.vc change a few months ago to trunk but not the 5.2 branch :(

I reopen and take over this bug since -DUSE_MSSQL2008_PLUGIN is still missing in the 5-2 branch (in makefile.vc) therefore the required entries are not exposed in the dll.

Applied in r8437 (branch 5-2)
