Re: PHP4 Java Support

Nathan, You may have read my question wrong. I was wondering how to instantiate Java Objects from within PHP. I currently write Java Code and use servlets to write most of my event handling and DB stuff. I'm looking into PHP as a viable solution for re-using my ready-made java classes and instianting them as objects from PHP explicitly. I read the /ext/java/README docs that covered how to install Java using the blackdown port of JDK 1.2.2 and looking for a development machine to test the ./config and make. At the moment I'm running PHP4 on Apache 1.3.9 w/ JServ Modules running on Linux with MySQL as the DB.. I've found that the mm.mysql jdbc drivers work well so my servlet code proves. However I would like to use my java classes from PHP4 and from the docs it looks pretty straight forward. I'll email you and this list if an when I come across any more problems. Thanks for the reply though! -Patrick ----- Original Message ----- From: Nathan Wallace <nathan@synop.com> To: Patrick Lacson <placson@taos.com> Sent: Wednesday, December 15, 1999 4:05 PM Subject: Re: PHP4 Java Support : : PHP, like Java is a programming language.
