I want to use a dll used to chnage documents from one format to another. I would like to know if it is possible to call a dll directly from php. If not, is it possible to write a PHP extension that uses the dll and then call the php function? I am familiar with php but new to windows programming and I am not sure what to do. Should I use Visual Basic, Visual C++ to write the php extension???
Thank you.
Yes but it might be easier to just create a cgi that calls the dll, vb or vc. Then make a call to the custom cgi using fopen(http://127.0.0.1/scripts/cgi?...) to make a request to the local server, think this would work and be really quick to do.
