Additional setup on Windows

Provided the required libraries are installed, users may enable enchant by adding the --with-enchant[=dir] option when compiling PHP.

Install

Provided the required libraries are installed, users may enable enchant by adding the --with-enchant[=dir] option when compiling PHP.

Windows users must enable php_enchant.dll in order to use this extension.

Note

Dll libenchant.dll, glib-2.dll, gmodule-2.dll.

Furthermore, it is necessary to copy at least one of the shipped providers in lib\enchant to \usr\local\lib\enchant-2 (which is an absolute path from the root of the current drive). Prior to PHP 8.0.0, i.e. using Enchant v1, the providers had to be copied to C:\enchant_plugins instead, where this path could be customized by creating the registry value HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Enchant\Config\Module_Dir and setting it to the desired path.
