Hi.

What are the plans for providing pre-built Win32 PECL extensions.

I've been waiting for http://pecl4win.php.net to become active again.

I understand that each extension has to be built MANY times (VC6/VC9,
ts/nts, PHP5.0/PHP5.1/PHP5.2/PHP5.3/PHP6.0, etc.) so this is a LOT of
effort (20 builds per extension, 40 if debug builds are also
performed), but something like this was available a long time ago
(http://web.archive.org/web/20071029164203/http://pecl4win.php.net/)

Regards,

Richard Quadling.

And this is what happens when I don't read the phpdoc commits before
asking questions!

the PHP project does not compile Windows binaries for PECL extensions.
However, to compile PHP under Windows see the chapter titled building

Small world: that chapter "Building PHP for Windows" is exactly why I
sent a message yesterday to the php-windows list asking where the most
uptodate instructions are for building PHP with VC 9 on Windows (that
chapter has broken links to the build tools, and the Wiki page,
http://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild, is incomplete).
So it seems we're in limbo for building!
