What do I need to build *php5*? Commercial vc6, Vc7, or is there a possibility to build with a free one, and if so what tools/free sdk's are required? Another quote from the online version: "To compile and build PHP you need a Microsoft Development Environment. Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 is recommended, although .NET versions will also work." Is vc6 sufficient to build php5 with the new build system? Don't get me wrong, but I think this sort of questions should be clear from the requirements section. Answers for this questions are not covered by the current requirement section. Thanks Friedhelm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-04 21:04:04] nlopess@php.net 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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
