Compiling v8js on windows

ravinGit commented 11 years ago

Hi, I'm trying to compile v8js for my php on a windows platform, but so far failed. I don't much experience of compiling from source, can a guide be created for compiling V8js on windows?

@ravinGit — I'll try to get to this soon. Thanks for raising the issue.

@stesie and @cscott — Do either of you have a Windows environment for testing?

@preillyme - no, I don't

If this helps here's a log of my console on Windows 8 64-bit building the latest php_v8js from github against PHP 5.5.12 and using the latest v8 headers from github. There's also build logs on the PECL Windows site but they aren't using the latest code.

[Edit] I didn't realise the defines in config.w32 needed changing, after fixing those and the variadic macro error, the only errors left building are

Because of #123 I now stepped up and clicked myself some Windows instances on Amazon EC2 and tried getting v8 & v8js to run with Visual Studio 2013.

V8Js' Windows build system is way neglected and rustic; but I can now reproduce the above problems and will look after them soonish

(I probably should integrate the Amazon AMI with Jenkins then, let's see)
