I already know that it is possible to install memcache (not memcached, that is another program!) for PHP on windows to be used with xampp.
I am wondering if there are any solutions for a working memcached (mind the d at the end :))?
I have put several hours into this already, I have found out that you can install it with ease on linux.
And that HHVM has this preinstalled, you just need some dependencies such as libmemcached and so on.
But I develop on windows using xampp, so I would like to be able to use the memcached class from php on windows, too. I don't think swapping the database and using redis is an option for me because it is slow. Even thoough phpredis is a fast C extension, but it is incompatible with HHVM.
There are countless tutorials on the web marketing how to install "memcache" on windows, but they are all just for the php memcache class (no d), not memcached.
The dll file you need to copy to D:\xampp\php\ext only exists for memcache and not memcached.
Can I develop with HHVM and memcached on windows using the php memcached class instead of the memcache one?
