For libraries - only if you wrote a PHP extension using those libraries. PHP programs have no C-style access to memory, so they can not communicate with C libraries that not aware of PHP. -- Best regards, Maxim Derkachev mailto:kot@books.ru Symbol-Plus Publishing Ltd. phone: +7 (812) 324-53-53 http://www.Books.Ru -- All Books of Russia
