note 109778 added to com.installation

As of 5.3.15 (if you are still on 5.3 branch) you have to add extension=php_com_dotnet.dll line into your php.ini to have COM, DOTNET, VARIANT and similar classes available and working. From PHP Change log: COM Fixed bug #62146 com_dotnet cannot be built shared Because of this, the official PHP builds for Windows are now built with "--enable-com-dotnet=shared" option, which means no COM/DOTNET support by default. Some of my projects that I currently maintain use adodb library which uses VARIANT class and fails to work without it. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 87.194.4.94 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/com.installation.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/109778 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109778/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109778/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109778/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109778/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109778/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109778/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109778 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/109778 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
