Hello,
I need to write PHP-PDO database-driver for a new database.

The clarification I need:
1) Should I take the PHP-source on Windows-vista platform and build natively
the DLL for win.
Will the VisualStudio compile with all PHP-main src & the extension
driver to generate the target windows DLL (PDO extension).

or

2) should I take PHP-src on Linux platform and use GNU Cross-compiler to
generate DLL. Then transfer the DLL to the target windows PHP env.

You can quite successfully build PHP for windows using MS VC++ 9 -
Even the Express Edition.
