Hi,

What do you use to build the necessary binary libraries, such as libiconv?
Cygwin? MinGW?

Thanks,
Tommy

hi,

We don't use nor rely on cygwin or mingw. See:

Hi Pierre,

Thanks for the response. I did read the wiki prior to asking but I saw some
of the libraries didn't have a VS makefile or project file, such as a
current version of libiconv [1]. In those cases, do you then attempt to
patch it to build purely in VS?

Thanks,
Tommy

Using makefiles or custom scripts, depends on the library, see the
docs here (click on each lib):

http://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/libs

But why do you need to build them? We provide bins+devs files for
every library used by PHP, or used upstream binaries when they are
compatible.

Hi Pierre,

It's more of a learning exercise and to test x64 on Windows. I can't =
seem
to get libiconv and gettext to compile for a past few days, even the =
older
versions 1.11.1 and 1.15 , respectively, having the makefile.msvc. I'll =
try
the support their respective support lists.

Thanks for your help,
Tommy

As far as I know libiconv and gettext both require patches to the source
of current versions to get them to compile, they're also libraries that
are VERY resistant to windows fixes being pushed upstream.

Good luck!

Thanks,

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like I got some work ahead.
