Subject:	Building an extension on windows

Hi,

I'm told to build an PHP extension on windows to be used with PHP 5.2.9.
What do I need for this purpose? Is there anywhere a manual telling me
what to do for this purpose?

I'm using Visual Studio 2008.

Must I get the source files from PHP 5.2.9 to do this? Do I need to
build PHP my self to get the lib files needed for linking, or where do I
get them from?

If I must build PHP my self, where can I find instructions how to do that?

Best wishes, Georg
