Hi everyone,
I'm new here and I'm stuck in using a win32 DLL/ActiveX library file that
does encoding/decoding.
I have a webserver running PHP on a linux server and I do all my programming
in PHP.
I need to find a way to send data to this DLL and get back the response.
I have sample codes in VC++ & VB, I know a little bit of VC++ and I do not
have Visual Studio or win32 tools.
If someone can guide me on what to use to make a either a linux
executable/fastcgi or a running process where I can just send the data on a
specific port and get back the results or just running a command like
"my-prog XXXXX" and get back YYYYY (where XXXX is the string to decode and
YYYY is the decoded string).
I would prefer to send/receive JSON data format.
I am assuming you cannot just setup a helper windows (physical or virtual)
machine and install PHP in it so you can use native COM with PHP, as described
in http://docs.php.net/manual/en/book.com.php .
Hmmm... you do not say if the dll requires .NET. If it does, it should be easy
to write a C# program that exposes the dll functionality and run it with mono.
If it does not, it might be possible to do the following:
1) Install win32 tools. Maybe Cygwin on a windows machine, or mingw32 packages
on linux. In either case, you need to be able to create a win32 executable.
2) Write and compile a program that uses your dll and exposes the functionality
the way you require. Test it on a windows machine.
3) Install Wine on your target machine.
4) Run your program via Wine.
