Can I use VC9 compiled PHP with Apache?

Question

According to the Windows Binaries download page http://windows.php.net/download/

Do NOT use VC9 version with apache.org binaries

Does this still hold? The only VC6 binaries are for PHP 5.2 and I believe that VC6 is no longer supported by Microsoft?

Answer 1

Using VC6 Apache (which is what apache.org builds) will NOT work with PHP VC9.

PHP.net suggests for you to use Apache binaries from ApacheLounge, they are built with VC9 and will work.
