Bug description: ActiveX automation support needed
I have written some ActiveX components in Visual Basic 6. It's nice to call this functionality
from various other programs, but I have no chance to call this functionality from PHP3.
I don't want to write the code in PHP3 for two reasons:
- I don't want to maintain two source codes when making changes
- ActiveX is able to control whole applications on the server, which is an interesting thing
Even I don't know how to write PHP3 extensions under Windows (There's a complete
"Hello world" example missing in the documentation), and: is it possible to do this in
Visual Basic (I have no developer studio)?
