PECL Extensions Download and Installation Support

Hello Team, I needed some support from your team with respect to getting the dll files or installation support of non-dll files for PECL. Please find the details of my simple issue below. > There are PECL download extensions like ODBC, MDB, DB2, and PECL Mail extensions, etc; which have files that are different and not ".dll" files. I saw files in php.net with tgz files for extensions, they have some ".c", ".h", "config". ".phpt" (some downloads) and xml file. They did not have dll's in zips and was not sure of their installation and activation in PHP.INI/ Config file. I am not well versed with C++ or C compilation and do not have a C compiler or VC9 Compiler. Without the ".dll" files, I will not be able to install them in the "c:/php/ext" the installation folder for most extensions in windows, which I think I might be able to enable using ".dll". > How do I enable the above in PHP, if its not a ".dll" extension? An alternative help is if I can get all the extensions download as ".dll" files. > Any support I can get for the ".dll" files downloads will be of great help? I got some help from one of PEAR support group from facebook but the link provided did not have all PECL Extensions. Though they were ".dll" files, the dll files for all extensions were not available.

I have the pierre link, but they do not have all the extensions. I just wanted to how do I enable an extension in PHP 5.2x Windows, using the the zip/tz files that have ".c", ".h", "config". ".phpt". Any specific tip. I have been struggling with the same. A help with even one is enough to get me started. I will install the others. Is it same like copying them to the folder and enabling it in the PHP.ini file?
