This is first time I need to load dll nad unfortunatelly this is not COM serwer dll so I can't use php com functions.
I found out it possible to use winbinder to do this, but so far I did not have that much success. Here is my code:
define("PATH_SCRIPT", dirname(__FILE__) . "/"); define("PATH_DATA", PATH_SCRIPT); define("PATH_INC", PATH_SCRIPT . "include/"); define("PATH_RES", PATH_SCRIPT . "resources/"); //----------------------------------------------------------------- DEPENDENCIES include PATH_INC . "winbinder.php"; //-------------------------------------------------------------------- CONSTANTS define("APPNAME", "Xml Reader!"); // Application name // Control identifiers define("ID_ABOUT", 101); //-------------------------------------------------------------- EXECUTABLE CODE // Create main window, then assign a procedure and an icon to it $mainwin = wb_create_window(NULL, AppWindow, APPNAME . " - PHP " . PHP_VERSION, 320, 240); wb_set_handler($mainwin, "process_main"); wb_set_image($mainwin, PATH_RES . "hyper.ico"); // Create toolbar wb_create_control($mainwin, ToolBar, array( array(ID_ABOUT, NULL, "About this application", 13), ), 0, 0, 16, 15, 0, 0, PATH_RES . "toolbar.bmp"); // Create status bar $statusbar = wb_create_control($mainwin, StatusBar, APPNAME); // Create label control inside the window wb_create_control($mainwin, Label, "This is xml reader\n" . "application that will read xml.\n" . "from dll and write it to file.", 10, 70, 290, 80, 0, WBC_CENTER); // Enter application loop wb_main_loop(); /* Process main window commands */ function process_main($window, $id) { global $statusbar; switch($id) { case ID_ABOUT: $dll = wb_load_library("dll/OSOZMOK.dll"); //$funcAddr = wb_get_function_address('OSOZ_Release', $dll); $funcAddr = wb_get_function_address('GetDllVersion', $dll); $dll_info = wb_call_function($funcAddr); $funcAddr = wb_get_function_address('OSOZ_IsConnected', $dll); $dll_info2 = wb_call_function($funcAddr); wb_release_library($dll); wb_message_box($window, "DLL Returned: 1) ".$dll_info. " 2) ".$dll_info2); break; case IDCLOSE: // IDCLOSE is predefined wb_destroy_window($window); break; } } It only does 2 things: creates winbinder window and if you click "about" it loads the dll and executes 2 functions.
The problem is that whe I click about again the program crashes...
Also instead on ruturned variables like TRUE or FALSE I get intigers. OSOZ_IsConnected will return constant intiger, and OSOZ_Release will give random.
For Example:
I really doubt the dll is anyhow wrong. It must be sth with the way I call functions.
Alternative: is there any other way to load a dll (delphi) in php? I would like to avoid learning c++/c# just to handle this dll, save xml output to file, and read it in php :P.
Big thanx for anyone that can help.
