You need VC++ and the platform SDK. Both can be installed without affecting any other softwares (be Borland, Eclipse or ICC). You can even have different versions of VC++ or different SDK installed without any problem. I have VC6/7/8/9 and two SDK installed on my windows development box. > In the past I have had no problems compiling my own builds of PHP on Linux, > and I have the code tree of the bits I want to play with set up in Eclipse > although I have not attempted to compile via that route. > > Simple question - is anybody actually using Eclipse to manage their > development work, and more important doing so to build windows binaries? It is not possible yet. It could be possible with CMake but that's another story. > Failing that building PHP via cygwin on the command line in Windows? > I would rather not get involved with Visual C++ even if it is free to > download now, I have enough trouble managing three configurations of Builder > 5 and 6 C++ and last time I downloaded an M$ SDK update it trashed the > Borland versions :( Installing VC++ should not affect your Borland setup. You can even install the MS tools without setting the ENVs globally (include, etc.). There is more infos and updated libraries available in our wiki (see the link in our previous mails). Feel free to ask us any other questions, we will happily help you to work on the interbase extension!
