Install php xml module

[Anon]

I would like to use Expat xml parser module.
But I'm not sure how to install it.

I have download it from
(http://www.jclark.com/xml/expat.html)
to my NT machine.
But I have to recompile it to make library for PHP which is I'm not sure how to do that.

Php builder web site said that I should replace the make file to:

libexpat.a: $(OBJS)
ar -rc $@ $(OBJS)
ranlib $@

I did that already.
The only c compiler that I have is visual C++. I very new with visual C++ also and I'm not quite sure how to run the makefile.

Can anyone help me with this?

Or is there a compiled PHP ready expat xml parser around web?

Apache 1.3.7 and up have expat built in by default, so you could try that. Not sure how well it works under Windows nowadays, but it was pretty serviceable if slow a year or two a go when I used it.
