Q:

Has anyone compiled a rabbitmq/amqp library for php 5.2.x on windows x64

I'm trying to publish messages to RabbitMQ from a php (5.2.x) script on my windows X64 dev machine.
The problem is that I didn't find any dll extension for php. My collegue is actually trying to build it (cf. How do you compile a PHP extension on windows with cygwin/mingw?), but without success :(.
Does anyone know where I can find a valid/working RabbitMQ dll extension for php (5.2.x)? Or if someone has the experience to do it correctly and quickly it would certainly be very helpful.

A:

Why not use php-amqplib?  Technically there's no need for this to be written as a low-level extension, Amqp is a TCP level protocol, it's possible to implement these in PHP.
