ActivePHP ?

Post by andrew_ »

With the release of PHP5, and the new standalone compiler, I have yet to find any information on how to include PHP scripting in a windows app. Typically this is done with an ActiveScripting interface for the Windows Script Control.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

you could download the php source, and build/incorporate the engine into your app.. or use the php*.dll'n'junk..

feyd: Thanks for the suggestion, but thats not really an option. We've a solid interface built around the Windows Script Control. I know there was/is a loosely based ActiveScripting engine for use in basic scripting, but the primary focus here is on the use of PHP (or an ActiveScripting Engine for PHP) through the Windows Script Control.

Weirdan: I'll take another look, but at first glance i didnt see anything different from previous builds.

update
I checked out that cvs directory, and found the php5activescript dll, and then followed the readme for installing it (not rocket science). Unfortunately
"A script engine for the specified language can not be created." is the message one will recieve when trying to set the Language property of the Windows Script Control to "ActivePHP5".
Suffice to say, it still doesnt work. Does anyone have any suggestions?
