Portable OSS Win32 Development: php.ini

[lordlobo]

Is it possible to put php.ini in the php directory instead of %SYSTEM_ROOT% ?

aka c:\windows or c:\winnt?

What I'd like to do is create a 'portable' Open Source/Apache/Win32 development environment

Like:

c:\oss\apache
c:\oss\php
c:\oss\perl
c:\oss\vim

So all I have to do is move the oss folder and change a couple lines in the configs without having to worry about any other files floating around.

That's where I've always kept it. Right next to the php.exe. That also lets you keep more than one instance of Apache at a time pointing to different instances of PHP.
