Building PHP 5.2.8 under Windows

Hello all.

I am trying to build PHP 5.3.8 under Windows XP SP3.

I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio V6, SP6 as specified here:
http://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/compiler.

I have installed the Windows Platform SDK V6.1 as specified here:
http://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/windowssdk
and downloaded from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e6e1c3df-a74f-4207-
8586-711ebe331cdc
<http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e6e1c3df-a74f-4207
-8586-711ebe331cdc&displaylang=en#Overview> &displaylang=en#Overview.

I have downloaded the binary tools from
http://pecl2.php.net/downloads/php-windows-builds/php-libs/binary-tools.zip
as specified here: http://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild.

I have a directory tree thus:

• C:\PhpDev\

  • php-5.2.8\

    • (PHP 5.2.8 source tree from
      http://us2.php.net/get/php-5.2.8.tar.gz/from/a/mirror.

  • php_build\

    • bison.exe

    • bison.simple

    • flex.exe

    • re2c.exe

    • zip.exe

    • bin\

      • (libiconv, libxml2, and zlib dlls and related)

    • include\

      • arpa\

      • conf\

      • freetype\

      • limxml\

      • named\

      • sys

      • (ft2build.h, iconv.h, etc.)

    • lib\

      -( freetype_a.lib, icnov.lib, etc.)

Following the instructions at http://screencast.com/t/lSIaPpkLG I opened a
command window, ran the vcvars32.bat, CDd to C:\PhpDev\php-5.2.8, ran
buildconf.bat, and issued cscript /nologo configure.js.

Note: C:\PhpDev\php_build is in the path.

The output from configure.js is:

Stop.

I have spent the last few hours searching the web and trying various things,
all with no apparent effect.

I have been to the step-by-step guide on the Wiki
(http://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild).
Unfortunately, the actual setup portion hasn't been written yet. That
section says ". to be written".

Help will be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Dave
