For help with doing this, see xthe official PHP website, http://php.net. * The header file sqlncli.h is required to build these extensions. It may be installed with the Microsoft SQL ServerŪ 2008 R2 Native Client (found at Microsoft.com) To compile the SQLSRV20 and PDO_SQLSRV20: 1) Copy the source code directories from this repository into the ext subdirectory. 1a) Make sure that sqlncli.h is either on the INCLUDE file path or copied locally to the extension directories. 2) run buildconf.bat to rebuild the configure.js script to include the new drivers. 3) run "cscript configure.js --enable-sqlsrv=shared --enable-pdo --with-pdo-sqlsrv=shared " to generate the makefile. Run "cscript configure.js --help" to see what other options are available. It is possible (and even probable) that other extensions will have to be disabled or enabled for the compile to succeed. Search bing.com for configurations that have worked for other people. 3a) It might be possible to compile these extensions as non-shared but that configuration has not been tested. 4) run "nmake". It is suggested that you run the entire build. If you wish to do so, run "nmake clean" first. 5) To install the resulting build, run "nmake install" or just copy php_sqlsrv.dll and php_pdo_sqlsrv.dll to your PHP extension directory. Also enable them within your PHP installation's php.ini file. This software has been compiled and tested under PHP 5.2.10 and PHP 5.3.0 using the Visual C++ 2008 Express and Standard compilers. * Note about version.h * The version numbers in version.h in the source do not match the version numbers in the supported PHP extension.
