Hi, I am writing a php application to use a com object that is defined in my OS, but I have difficulties getting a (smart)pointer from another com-object.
Here is the code (untill the error): ****************************************************************** $ConnectionObj = new COM("Falcon.ConnectionObject") or die("Unable to instanciate ConnectionObject"); //First COM-object !!!! print "Loaded ConnectionObject\n"; $GroupDataObj = new COM("Falcon.GroupData") or die("Unable to instanciate GroupDataObject"); //Second COM-object!!! print "Loaded GroupDataObject\n"; $devOpenErr = $ConnectionObj->Open2("FalconEdi.Pei16Edi.1","COM1");//); //Get a connection to some thing :-) $result = $GroupDataObj->Connection($ConnectionObj); //Here is the error ****************************************************************** At this last line I get the error Invoke() failed:exception occured. I think this is because I don't know how to get a smartpointer to that ConnectionObject. Because a parameter in the GroupDataObj must be a pointer to the first COM-object and this is done throught this function (GroupDataObj->Connection) which takes a pointer to that first com-object. The function GroupDataObj->Connection is defined as follows: ****************************************************************** HRESULT IGroupDataTransfer::Connection ( [in] IConnection * newVal ) ****************************************************************** with "IConnection" the Interface "Falcon.ConnectionObject" like in my php code above. In C++, I would have done that last line as follows: ****************************************************************** HRESULT hr = GroupdataObj->Connection (IConnectionPtr(IConnectionObj)); ****************************************************************** But in C++ the headers are used and this is what I found for the definition of IConnectionPtr: ****************************************************************** #if defined(__cplusplus) && defined(_MSC_VER) && defined(_COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF) _COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF(IConnection, __uuidof(IConnection)); ****************************************************************** Anybody knows ho to do that in PHP ? Are these variables I created abov, "$ConnectionObj" and "$GroupDataObj" pointers or php-com-structures or both ? If not the first how can you get a pointer to it then ?
