I have need for a commercial class library that requires a paramater to be passed when the object is created. It does not appear as though PHP allows for the instantiation of COM/DOTNET objects that require a parameter to be passed to their constructor... I am not sure if I am being clear, but suppose to create a new Mercedes you would use: $car = new COM("Car.Mercedes"); What if the constructor for that class required that you specified a model of the car in order to instantiate it? e.g.: $car = new COM("Car.Mercedes('SL600')"); ...or something like that. Is it possible? Is there a work-around? ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.com.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+52594 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52594&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52594&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52594&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52594&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52594&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+52594&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
