I am including a code snippet that will aid you.
# Location of your binary.
$yourbinary = "/usr/bin/yourprogram";
# Location of the libs for your c program if needed
$yourlib = YOUR_LIB . ":" . getenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH");
putenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$yourlib");
# The args to call the binary with
# For example:
$arg1 = 10;
$arg2 = 15;
# Put together the command string
$command = "$yourbinary $arg1 $arg2";
$result = `$command`;
Be sure to check the return result from your program.
Hope this helps
Paul

Subject: [PHP] Calling C functions
hi all,
I have just started working on PHP ... (just a couple of days back)
I had posted a question yesterday and could not get any rep from anyone
....
My problem is this ... I have to take inputs from a web-based interface
and pass them as parameters to a C function (or an executable program)
Could anyone of you kindly let me know how can I invoke such C library
functions or executables from php.
thanks for the help in advance.
Warm Regards,
Sharad
