First of all, re2c is easily available for windows - easier to find then flex - just visit the re2c homepage and download the pre-compiled binary. It's not in zip.zip yet, there is no need for it to be there until we have a release that actually uses it. There's no documentation in the manual yet, the stuff JUST went into CVS. There is other documentation around telling you how to find re2c. Secondly, my $0.02 1. If re2c IS found, try to rebuild the .c versions 2. If re2C is NOT found, use the .c versions in cvs - this allows not making re2c required but letting people who do have it get properly generated files every time -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
