c++ with php

devendraC

Hi,
Can any one tell me how to use c++(in linux) with php.
Is there any sample for it.

Thanks

3 choces:

1) run your cpp code as external CGI program and include the output to php script
2) run it as shell command and catch the output for php
3) make a c-level PHP module (more information can be found at php.net manual pages)

If your program
work with stdin/stdout the easiest way it's first.

You can call your program from url, passing commandline after "?"

myprg.exe?arg1=1&arg2=2&arg3=3

The program must at start output the header:
printf("Content-type: text/html\n\n\n");

then you can get the string in url:
char args[1024];
strcpy(args,getenv("QUERY_STRING"));

You have to strip it in separate var, then replace any urlencode char (eg replace "%20" with " " and so on..).

Then you can reput any result outputting on stdout:
printf("<HTML><BODY><H1>You get right !!!</H1></BODY></HTML>");

see you
