Thank you!

See also #7, which uses a more conservative SDK; not sure what to prefer.

The choice is not easy. I prefer the older SDK to keep more compatible with old VisualStudio installation.

I have to test the library build with an older version without installing it.

I don't think that using one version or another changes much in the generated binary. The libraries do not use the new features of the latest SDKs.

I remember that a while ago I had issues (don't remember exactly what it was) with some of the newer SDKs (might have been 10.26100.0, but I'm not sure), and had to uninstall it to go on. 10.0.20348.0 is well tested I think, but 10.0.22621.0 is probably okay, too.

I just tested, it is not possible to build without the SDK installed.

I had a problem with the SDK (the latest one) during my compilation tests on ARM64. I had to modify a header file of the SDK. I hope I will not have to do this modification again with an older version.

What is the minimum Windows version for PHP 8.4?

That sounds adventurous.

What is the minimum Windows version for PHP 8.4?

Same as for PHP 8.3: Windows 8/Server 2012 (https://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.requirements.php).

Yes, but I can accept for experimental build. Not for production build.

Thank you. The SDK version is the same one used for PHP 8.3. It's sound good.
