ala888 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 what do the abbreviations: nts ts vc rc what do they mean, and what do they entail. google search yields nothing due to the short length of the keywords.Also, I feel as if there are a plethora of such terms, is there like an extensive documentation of them somewhere? deez esoteric terms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justsomeguy Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 In PHP releases, the filenames have TS or NTS for whether they are thread-safe or non-thread-safe. For Windows, VC might indicate which version of the Visual C++ redistributable is required. RC is typically used to identify that a particular version is a release candidate.

ala888 Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 Is there a large difference between using different vc versions? say I am not sure which visual c++ I have, can I just pick the lowest supported one and forget the rest? ie. php_imagick-3.1.2-5.6-ts-vc9-x64.zip rather than php_imagick-3.1.2-5.6-ts-vc11-x64.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Check the left of this page under "Which version do I choose":http://windows.php.netIn general, choose the latest version available. If you don't have the VC11 redistributable, might as well install it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
