I am working on a project that involves rendering dll from PHP. I have been able to create a DLL extension with visual c++ on windows, and the DLL
is working too. i created it from downloading the source of some of them PECL files, so now i need to figure out how to read a php file and render it
directly with the DLL by calling a function within the DLL. Any help in this direction will be appreciated.

At times, i'm surprised @ d kind of projects u handle. u go wound o

Well. . . .i guess that is why i am DHTML, i dont handle bread-and-butter projects, i outsource them *i need to grow stronger*

Meanwhile i have found an alternative means of solving the problems, by encapsulating the info i wish to protect
into executable files rather than dynamic-link libraries.
I am working on improving security offered by zend, iron-gate and the likess (which can be ha.cked too easily) in
deploying a php application over the intranet/internet. I cannot disclose too much information here, since many of
those i wish to hide those codes from reside on this board.

Meanwhile, the thread is still open, this method i resorted to works but it is more complicated than using DLLs.
