ID: 28179 User updated by: arnout at argeweb dot nl Reported By: arnout at argeweb dot nl Status: Wont fix Bug Type: COM related Operating System: Windows NT 5.2 / Windows 2003 -PHP Version: 4.3.6 +PHP Version: PHP Version 5.0.0RC2 New Comment: The problem's still there. Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message 'Source: PHPTest Description: Can not call friend function on object which is not an instance of defining class' in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\phptest.php:32 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\phptest.php on line 32 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-28 17:12:42] wez@php.net Maybe its about time I read the version field of this report. This problem won't be fixed in PHP 4, but already works just fine in PHP 5. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-28 13:30:39] arnout at argeweb dot nl I received the DLL and the error's still there. http://www.argeweb.nl/php/PHPTest.zip This file contains the DLL, the sourcecodes, an example and a readme. No IDL but I think this might be even better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-28 11:11:39] wez@php.net The IDL describes what the method looks like to other COM applications; I need it to see what their object expects and help deduce what might be going wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-28 09:39:46] arnout at argeweb dot nl I've talked to them. They said an IDL wouldn't do much good because IDL doesn't contain friend functions, only publics. They offered to create a sober "Hello world" DLL in VB which simulates the case. I'll test again when I get it. If the error occurs again I'll send you the source code + compiled version. Is that of use to you? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-27 19:52:30] wez@php.net It could easily be a PHP problem. Could you paste the IDL for the method in question here please, so that I can make a similar COM object here to test against. If you're unsure about how to get it, ask the people that made the DLL. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
