pecl memcached on windows

Question

I'm using Windows XP SP3 and I need to install libmemcached (NOT MEMCACHE), the php class, through PECL. However, every time I try to it tells me that it can't find memcached.dsp.

Is there a way to install libmemcached on windows through PECL?

Hi,

You can try downloading php_memcache.dll from Pierre's server : http://downloads.php.net/pierre/ (You'll find it inside php_memcache-something.zip)

That way, you won't have to compile it yourself -- which is not generally that easy on windows...

There are also several other extensions already compiled, there -- As I understand, it's some kind of "replacement" for pecl4win.php.net (at least for a couple of extensions ; not all of them, though) until extensions are put on windows.php.net
