My directory is located on L:\xampp\htdocs\phpBB3.1 and with commandline in Windows is not possible to install symphony.

I don't understand how it works, so I can't test the new development version local.

It doesnt works on this time, on nothing of a folder. Is it possible to get a package installed with sympony. (This is not usefull for newbies or other interesting users if the install procedure is difficult)

If you have a git client installed with a command line utility, that might be the easiest way to do it.

The post I wrote also said you can just download it off of their site instead of trying to be fancy on the command line. Anyway, since composer.phar is actually in the phpBB repo now, the first steps are no longer needed. Just copy composer.phar from the root to /phpBB/ and run php composer.phar install. The folder containing php.exe will need to be in your environment PATH for that to work.

It is definitely possible, as I just did this morning. I had to use:
php -r "eval('?>'.file_get_contents('https://getcomposer.org/installer'));"
(with CMD in the directory of the phpBB installation) instead of the curl command because I got some odd syntax error. But anyway, after that you just run
php composer.phar install
And it does it for you.

The composer.phar is not in the repository, so you do not have to download it.

composer.phar is currently located in the top-most folder of the repository. I'm not sure if that is intentional because atm you either have to move it into the phpBB directory or else download it yourself there.

I think he meant "now" rather than "not".
