Description:
------------
Building PHP On Windows 10 doesn't recognize “--with-prefix” option with Visual Studio 2017 Community

Test script:
---------------
I can't select PHP 7.1.3...

I have **Visual Studio 2017 Community**.

I was following this posts

https://mage2.pro/t/topic/313 and http://www.kshabazz.net/build-php-on-windows.html


cd /d c:\Sources\php-7.1.3-src\

    cscript configure.js --with-prefix=c:\Custom\php\ --with-php-build=c:\Sources\deps-7.1-vc14-x64\deps\ --enable-object-out-dir=out\ --enable-debug-pack --enable-apache2-4handler --with-curl=static --with-mhash=static --enable-intl --enable-mbstring --enable-mbregex --with-mcrypt=static --with-openssl=static --with-pgsql --with-config-file-scan-dir=c:\Custom\php\conf.d\ --enable-exif --enable-pdo --with-pdo-mysql --enable-soap --with-xmlrpc=static --with-xsl=static --with-mysqli

Why the `--with-prefix=c:\Custom\php\` option doesn't work?

Some clue?

Expected result:
----------------
Instead of Output ... c:\Sources\php-7.1.3-src\out\Release_TS\

I expect the installation on c:\Custom\php\ folder

Thanks for the report. The option --with-prefix affects the path where the bins are put with "nmake install". To use a non default intermediate dir for the compilation, use --enable-object-out-dir.

Thanks.

Thank you for your answer...
Sorry But, I'm confused.

cscript /nologo configure.js --help

  --with-prefix                     where PHP will be installed
  --enable-object-out-dir           Alternate location for binary objects
                                    during build
  --with-php-build                  Path to where you extracted the
                                    development libraries
                                    (http://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/libs).
                                    Assumes that it is a sibling of this
                                    source dir (..\deps) if not specified

I'm telling the development libraries are located on c:\Sources\deps-7.1-vc14-x64\deps\, the intermediate build files c:\Sources\php-7.1.3-src\out\, and FINAL binary files put on c:\Custom\php\

According to my post, What changes I need to do? because I have "--enable-object-out-dir" option defined like c:\Sources\php-7.1.3-src\out\`... 


If I want to use (only output files to be used and not intermediate files during build process), I need to remove `--enable-object-out-dir` from my command?


Please, put the right sentence:


Thank you in advance
