hello all,
apologies, if it is a wrong place to ask such a question. i am trying to
compile php (5.1.0 and 5.2.1) on windows (xp sp2) with Visual Studio .Net
2005, Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 SP1 and the win32build
tools from php.net. i am getting similar errors with both the versions of
php. would be great if some one helps me with a clue.
thanks,
vedanta
