Xitami on Microsoft Windows
A detailed tutorial for building php 5 using VC++ 2005 express edition (ie. the free version) is available here: http://elizabethmariesmith.com/2006/11/15/
It can be a huge time saver if you do not have a complete VC6 toolchain already setup
Building from source
This chapter teaches how to compile PHP from sources on windows, using Microsoft's tools. To compile PHP with cygwin, please refer to Installation auf Unix-Systemen.
See the Wiki documentation at: » http://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild

if this is so easy, please tell us how you managed to *not* create dependencies on msvcp71.dll/msvcr80/... using Visual C++ .NET 2000/2003/2005. thanks!

When running "cscript /nologo configure.js" 5.x on Windows
2000 or XP, if you get the following error:
Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this
property or method
You need to have at least version 5.6 of WSH.
This is necessary because configure.js will use the .Exec()
method of the WScript.Shell.
This evidently didn't exist until 5.6?
You can download WSH 5.6 here:

Don't forget to setup Environment variable:
BISON_SIMPLE="C:\\work\\win32build\\bin\\bison.simple"
or this can cause error:
c:/usr/local/lib/bison.simple: No such file or directory

Compiling using Visual Studio .NET will create binaries dependent of msvcp71.dll which has three repercussions:
1. This dll will need to be distributed.
2. The binaries are not currently compatible with the Zend optimiser (not sure why it should make a difference but it does).
3. Binaries are larger!
