Pecl memcached on windows

Question

I am using Windows XP SP3 and I need to install libmemcached ( NOT MEMCACHE ), php class, through PECL. However, every time I try to do this, it tells me that it cannot find memcached.dsp.

Is there a way to install libmemcached on windows via PECL?

You can try downloading php_memcache.dll from the Pierre server: http://downloads.php.net/pierre/ (you will find it inside php_memcache-something.zip)

This way, you don’t have to compile it yourself - which is usually not so simple in windows ...

There are also several other extensions already compiled, there - as I understand it, this is a kind of "replacement" for pecl4win.php.net (at least for several extensions, but not for everyone) until windows.php.net extensions are added
