Anyone know how I can get the php_http extension working on php 5.4.5 on windows?

I am trying to upgrade to PHP 5.4.5 on my windows machine (running off IIS). The project I am working on has a dependency of the php_http extension (http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.http.php)

Unfortunately there doesn’t appear to be a downloadable DLL file anywhere for a 5.4 compatible version of this extension (see http://php.net/manual/en/http.install.php). Installing via pecl doesn’t seem to work for me either, I end up getting this: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=58531

Does anyone know where I can get a DLL for this, or can provide me with other options for getting this extension set up?

Note: 5.3 works fine using the DLL linked to here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/http.install.php#109498

    Pierre Joye provides Windows builds of various PECL extensions for new versions. If it’s not there (which at the time of writing it isn’t) you have no option but to get the source (here) and build it yourself.

    Sorry.

    Being that cURL is much more readily available, and can do pretty much everything (if not actually everything) that the HTTP extension can do, I would suggest that you look at migrating your project towards using cURL instead.
