COM/DCOM on Linux

[John D]

Hi

I'm about to use a COM/DCOM component in a PHP webapplication. Until
now I searched through google without any kind of succes.

Does any of you know whether it's posible or not to access a COM/DCOM
component within PHP when running on a Linux server.

John,

If you are inquiring about the COM functions in php, you can get that
info directly from php.net here:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.com.php

See the Requirements section.

See:

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.com.php

This should answer most of your questions. I have not actually used
any of this but it looks like you can use COM/DCOM from PHP to some
degree. You may not be able to actually execute the COM on the linux
box but instead remotely access a COM object residing on a Windows box
from your linux box.
