How to create PHP extensions under win32

[Anon]

Hi fellow PHP coders!

Can anybody give me any pointers on how to create my own PHP extension. I'd like to develop my own extension for controlling some hardware on my win32 webserver. Is there any 'framework' or Visual C++ project available (+including libs)? Any experience on how to start something like this. Hope somebody out there can help me...
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,

Tom van der Geer
