[SOLVED] Re-Compiling on windows box


Recommended Posts

I keep reading everywhere 'compile php with...' to get things like free type fonts working... but obviously on Windows you don't compile, you just dump and go.

So how do I 're-compile' on a windows box?

 

If it makes much difference, I'm running IIS, but I also have a Windows box with abyss on it.

You don't need to recompile PHP to add x feature into the default install. You only have to recompile if you are on a *nix based OS. With Windows you just have to get the extension file (php_<extension_name>.dll) and any third party libraries the extension may require. Then in your php.ini you just place the following into the extension list:

extension=php_<extension_name>.dll
