Hello,
Thanks to you , I can test some features on nginx for windows.
But, I wonder if I can add some 3rd party modules on nginx for windows.
Specially I want to use modules like memc and eval on windows version nginx.
I’ll appreciate if you can let me know how to build the nginx for windows with some 3rd party modules I wrote above.
Thank you.
Look at this post: Builging Lighttpd for Windows with Cygwin, and adapt it to Nginx. It is the same basic method. I hope that helps.
