Can PHP call win32 dll file?

[Anon]

hello expert;

      can anyone tell me how to use php to integrate with other language like C++ application API. What i mean is we create our own dll file for PHP and C++ application API communicate.

thank you

Not directly AFAIK. You can wrap an executable program around the DLL and call it through a command-line (using standard-input and standard-output for input and output, respectively). To call a standard executable, see http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.exec.php.

I'm not quite sure I understand what you want. However, you could program your own PHP extension in C as PHP source is written in C.

If the API of your application is written in C (I'm not quite sure about C++), and is contained in a header file you could easily include it in the source code of a PHP extension. You could then use all the functions of the application library to create your own PHP API.

Hope that is what you wanted to know.
