PHP and DLL loaded into MTS: not working

[Sethuraman.Harish@gmail.com]

I have built a sample dll that just sets string data in the
outparameters. I am able to access the DLL functions from PHP and get
responses when I use the following call:

echo "<b>TestCom Library COM Call</b>";
$TestCom = new COM("TestCom.Se rver") or die("Unable to instanciate
TestCom");
echo "<br/>Loaded TestCom calling Test.";
$TestCom->Test($lOut, $lOut1, $lOut2, $lOut3);
echo "<br/>Output:$lOut , $lOut1, $lOut2, $lOut3";

Output:teststr, teststr1, teststr2, teststr3

When I host this dll in MTS, The output I recieve is .
Output: ,,,

When hosted in MTS, I am able to get the same output if I call the dll
functions from vbscript/VB.

Can anyone help me identify where I am making a mistake, or can anyone
give me any pointers?

Thanks for the help in advance.

Try...
$1Out = "Nothing Special";
echo($1Out);

Perhaps they need to start with an underscore or letter? And
also, note, that PHP makes the variable names case-sensitive
whereas VBScript / VB is NOT case-sensitive.

From: http://www.php.net/language.variables

<snip>
Variable names follow the same rules as other labels in
PHP. A valid variable name starts with a letter or
underscore, followed by any number of letters, numbers,
or underscores. As a regular expression, it would be
expressed thus:

'[a-zA-Z_\x7f-\xff][a-zA-Z0-9_\x7f-\xff]*'
</snip>

Hope this helps. Good luck.
