Hi,

In general, building PHP on windows should be as easy as on Unix, not
requiring any special knowledge of the tools, meaning:
1. Get environment with MSVC set up
2. Get external libraries (recommended to put them in same upper-level
dir as php checkout)
3. Run buildconf
4. Run cscript configure.js --options
5. Run nmake
When I run nmake, it has a line that starts with "" instead of some
command name. Looking at the configure.js script, it seems that it
cannot find something called mc.exe on my system (no wonder since I
don't have it), but it goes forward happily without any errors.
I managed to learn little about mc.exe using Google. It's some kind of
Message Compiler by Microsoft. Any idea what do I need to install to get
mc.exe?
It may seem that MSVC install is broken, but I can build wxWidgets and
FlameRobin with it without any problems. I have MSVC 9 Express Edition.
If something doesn't work along the way, most probably some library is
missing or wrong version, etc. There's now dedicated windows list
[EMAIL PROTECTED], which might be a better place for
discussing it, but in any case description of the error message would help.
Ok, thanks.
