ID: 32728 Updated by: nlopess@php.net Reported By: holliwell at gmx dot net -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: windows PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: nlopess New Comment: isn't http://php.net/install.windows.building#install.windows.building.requirement enough?? you only need a windows system :) and Visual Studio (6 or .Net), either a free (sdk, whatever) or a commercial version. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-04 13:28:21] holliwell at gmx dot net Nuno, thanks for putting that together. It would be helpful, to have a section about requirements which answers the question: "What tools/software/updates/ etc. do I need to build php5 with the new build system?" I remember, Wez has posted requirements some time ago to internals. A requirements section would be definitly helpful. Friedhelm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-09-25 12:30:42] nlopess@php.net I think everything is now documented. Please read it (after the next manual build) and let me know of any errors/omissions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-16 17:58:34] holliwell at gmx dot net Description: ------------ The "new" configure-like build system for win32 is not covered by the docs. I think we need detailed documentation about how to build php from source on win32. Important, as of php5 the supplied .dsp-Files for VC6 are not well maintainded. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32728&edit=1
