title: how can i get libmemcached for windows?
body: <p>i'm trying to install the memcached extension in my windows localhost: wamp 64 php 5.5.12. see memcached at: <a href="https://pecl.php.net/package/memcached" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://pecl.php.net/package/memcached</a> (notice that This extension uses libmemcached library)</p>
  
  <p>unfortunately there is not a ready dll for this extension.. so i need to produce the dll myself.</p>
  
  <p>i followed this guide in order to produce a working dll: <a href="https://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild</a> 
  (im using Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 to compile)</p>
  
  <p>i get an error when i try to configure (just before the build).
  here is the print screen error that i get:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/XAkl5.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/XAkl5.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>unfortunately the memcached extension is depended on <a href="http://libmemcached.org/libMemcached.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">'libmemcached library'</a> which do not officially support windows environment.</p>
  
  <p>i came across this git project. 
  <a href="https://github.com/moteus/libmemcached-win32" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/moteus/libmemcached-win32</a><br>
  im not sure what can i do with that source file and how can that help me. it seems that this git project is a libmemcached ready to work in windows (for all i know) </p>
  
  <p>do this github project is a ready libmemcached library (if so where is the memcached.lib?)? or how can i produce from this page a memcached.lib file? (or anything that will help me make a working dll for the memcached extension)   </p>
  
  <p>would deeply appreciate any help on this.
  thanks!!</p>
