To have doing sth
Hi, watching a movie I heard a sentence: "That's what we have fighting". From the context I understood it having the same meaning as "have to fight". I also thought it could work the same as "need to do" and "need doing". However I read that "have doing" is a idiom meaning to plan doing sth. Does "have doing" always mean to plan to do or could it also mean "have to do"?

Monika Nowak Hi, watching a movie I heard a sentence: "That's what we have fighting". It was probably "That's what we have been fighting" because what you claim to have heard makes no sense. It's ungrammatical.
