Error during execution of nmakeon makefileinYAZ/windirectory

In your README file at http:
//ftp.indexdata.dk/pub/phpyaz/win32/README you
say to "Put php_yaz.dll in the extension directory and
take yaz.dll from a recent YAZ WIN32 installer
(/pub/yaz/win32)."  

I have done that.  I took php_yaz.dll from
http
://ftp.indexdata.dk/pub/phpyaz/win32/4.3.6/.

Are you now saying that I have to use Visual Studio to build
php_yaz.dll?  If
so, is there somewhere to get guidance on building a .dll
file using Visual
Studio?

PHP has its own project files for Windows. And these, in
particular, must
also be used 
to build php_yaz.dll. php_yaz.dll in turn depends on
yaz.dll.

To be expected.

Ditto.

Not as far as I am concerned.

These instructions tell how to built YAZ from source on
Windows. There 
is nothing in these instructions regarding PHP/YAZ
(php_yaz.dll) and PHP 
itself.

In my case, I require a running Apache server, a

You have to use Visual Studio to built php_yaz.dll. PHP has
its own 
project files for Windows. And these, in particular, must
also be used 
to built php_yaz.dll. php_yaz.dll in turn depends on
yaz.dll.

Only yaz.dll is part of the Windows YAZ install .exe . And
yaz.dll 
depends on these DLLs:
   iconv.dll
   libxml2.dll
   libxslt.dll
   zlib1.dll
