note 42809 added to ref.w32api

It seems that this extension will be replaced by FFI extension in PHP5. FFI stands for "Foreign Function Interface" and it's not limited by Windows API, but also supports Linux APIs. You may reach this extension's website at http://pecl.php.net/package/ffi . For Windows, you may try this code from commandline php.exe: <?php dl ("php_ffi.dll"); $windows = new ffi ("[lib='user32.dll'] int MessageBoxA( int handle, char *text, char *caption, int type );" ); echo $windows->MessageBoxA(0, "Message For You", "Hello World", 1); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.w32api.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+42809 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+42809&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+42809&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
