i recently downloaded a mail server program and found out that the primary way of allowing users access to their accounts (changing passwords etc) is through a .DLL that comes with the program..
although i've familiarized myself with PHP (and have grown to love it.. with the PHP Manual as my BIBLE), i'm sad to say that i still belong to the ranks of the newbies.. anyway, here's a part of the helpfile:
ships with ActiveX library XXXX.dll. It contains automation objects, which can be used from external applications. If you have a programming tool, which supports COM, you can create your own application which will use them.
IMPORTANT: Before using objects from the library, you must register it. To do it, click Tools - ActiveX Library - Register.
my question is, how will i access the functions provided in this DLL? do i leave the DLL in the default system path? do i make modifications to the PHP.INI in order to use COM Objects?
i've been trying to grasp the COM Functions of PHP using the manual but i still couldnt grasp it quite well.. as always, thanks for the help..
