Support for the PE file format?

[Jane Doe]

Hi,

I'd like to write a PHP script that opens a Windows binary file (EXE,
DLL, OCX, etc.), and extracts its version number, if any. Does anyone
know if a module is available to do this?

Thank you
JD.

You can get info about PE format here

Thx, but I neither have the time nor the skills to write a PHP module
that will extract those infos. I was wondering if someone had already
done this :-)

If so I don't imagine what you want this for...

If it's any help, the Win32 call to do this is GetFileVersionI nfo. (Which
doesn't help if you want a pure PHP version rather than write a Windows DLL to
call it).

I was asking whether someone knew of a module that can extract
information from a PE binary. I'd like to make a list of binaries in a
directory, and display their version number.

Thx
JD.

Thx for the ip :-) I can't call a DLL because the server is running
Unix. I know, it's pretty unlikely there's a PHP module that can read
PE files, even when the script is running under Unix... but I was
asking just in case.
