Re: Calling an executable for processing some data sent from PHP

Will that script also work on Apache in Windows? OS X? Just checking because the backend and front end both need to be able to be installed on any OS. Also I looked at exec(), system(), and passthru(); they all let you execute a executable file but I don't see any way of passing parameters in any of those functions, can you do that? - Daniel ""Daniel Brown"" <parasane@gmail.com> wrote in message news:ab5568160706151311m3327bbccha02e3f5ca96255d8@mail.gmail.com...

Ok, so I have a PHP script, and I also have a program written in Pascal, it's compiled in the native executable for whatever OS the server is running. I want to have the user input info and then send that info to the Pascal program to call a function and send the info as parameters. Is there any sort of server side call I can do to do this? Or is my only option making some sort of connection such as SOAP between PHP and the Program? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
