<p>There are many important points to consider before you begin compiling

+ Apache HTTP Server (httpd). See <a href="windows.html">Using Apache HTTP
+ Server on Microsoft Windows</a> before you begin.</p>
+
+ <p>httpd can be built on Windows using a cmake-based build system or with
+ Visual Studio project files maintained by httpd developers. The cmake-based
+ build system directly supports more versions of Visual Studio but currently
+ has considerable functional limitations.</p>

+
+
+
+ <p>The policy of the Apache HTTP Server project is to only release Unix sources.
+ Windows source packages made available for download have been supplied by
+ volunteers and may not be available for every release. You can still build
+ the server on Windows from the Unix source tarball with just a few additional
+ steps.</p>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>Download and unpack the Unix source tarball for the latest version.</li>
+ <li>Download and unpack the Unix source tarball for latest version of
+ APR, AR-Util and APR-Iconv, place these sources in directories httpd-2.x.x\srclib\apr, httpd-2.x.x\srclib\apr-util and httpd-2.x.x\srclib\apr-iconv</li>
+ <li>Open a Command Prompt and CD to the httpd-2.x.x folder</li>
+ <li>Run the line endings conversion utility at the prompt;</li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ perl srclib\apr\build\lineends.pl
+ </code></p></div>
+
+ <p>You can now build the server with the Visual Studio 6.0 development
+ environment using the IDE. Command-Line builds of the server are not
+ possible from Unix sources unless you export .mak files as explained
+ below.
+ </p>
+
+
+
+ <h3><a name="commandbuild" id="commandbuild">Command-Line Build</a></h3>
Review the initial comments in Makefile.win for additional options
that can be provided when invoking the build.</p>

+
+
+ <p>The primary documentation for this build mechanism is in the
+ <code>README.cmake</code> file in the source distribution. Refer to that file
+ for detailed instructions.</p>
+
+ <p>Building httpd with cmake requires building APR and APR-util separately.
+ Refer to their <code>README.cmake</code> files for instructions.</p>
+
+ <p>The primary limitations of the cmake-based build are inherited from the APR-util
+ project, and are listed below because of their impact on httpd:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>No cmake build for the APR-iconv subproject is available, and the
+ APR-util cmake build cannot consume an existing APR-iconv build. Thus,
+ <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_charset_lite.html">mod_charset_lite</a></code> and possibly some third-party modules
+ cannot be used.</li>
+ <li>The cmake build for the APR-util subproject does not support most of the
+ optional DBM and DBD libraries supported by the included Visual Studio
+ project files. This limits the database backends supported by a number of
+ bundled and third-party modules.</li>
+ </ul>
