Re: Calling API on Windows?

Hi, How can I use it? For example: [lib='user32.dll'] int MessageBoxA(int handle, char *text, char *caption, int type); How can I write this sentence? What is the format? And I want to use GetComputerNameA, what can I do? <?php $win32_idl = "[lib='user32.dll'] int MessageBoxA(int handle, char *text, char *caption, int type); [lib='kernel32.dll'] int GetComputerNameA (char *lpBuffer, DWORD nSize);"; $ffi = new ffi($win32_idl); $compname = ''; $r = $ffi->GetComputerNameA($compname,255); echo $r; //Debug echo $ffi->MessageBoxA(0, "The Computer Name is " . $compname, "Test", 0); ?> doesn't work, it give me an error. Please help, thx!
