Imagemagick as PHP extension on Windows
General (wiki) - urs @ 12:00:00

Recently, a php_imagick.dll has been released [1]. I downloaded the Imagemagick binary for Windows and installed it [2]. Then I copied all CORE_*.dll files to winntsystem32 and put an extension=php_imagick.dll in the php.ini. That got imagick running as extension in PHP, as far as I could see in phpinfo().

So if You can have a look at it, the developpers will appreciate any comments of running systems, since this is all EXPERIMENTAL yet [3].

I got the extension succesfully loaded. phpinfo() proves this. Now all of the example scripts crash my apache server. What do I do now? I've got it running, but I don't know how to use it. Where is the documentation for this "extension"?
