[Solved] Using PHP functions inside AutoIt

[evol]

Hi guys found this on a blog today and i was just wondering how this works as ive tried the example but i cant get it to work for myself ?

Here is the blog entry http://www.sadeghi85.info/articles/using-php-functions-inside-autoit/#more-189

If anyone has any ideas or pointer id appreciate it.

I wouldn't bother with that, it's most likely that whatever you're looking to do will be "doable" in pure autoit script.

True but its the setup their using that im interested in, they say.........

Download latest version of PHP if you haven’t already done so, we only need "php.exe" and "php5.dll"(or "php5ts.dll"). Then create a text file, name it "index.php" and paste the code below into it:

<?php

$input = STDIN;
$command = '';

while(!feof($input))
{
    $command .= fread($input, 8192);
}

eval($command);

exit;
?>

Now pack all these three files to "php4autoit.7z".

Ok ive done that now what ? where does php4autoit.7z go now because they dont tell you and i always get a error on line 17 of there code.

$rand =  "\~" & Random(1, 100000, 1)
$_7_zip32_dll_path = @TempDir & "\7-zip32.dll"
$files_7z_path = @TempDir & "\php4autoit.7z"
$extracted_files_path = @TempDir & $rand
DirCreate($extracted_files_path)

FileInstall("7-zip32.dll", $_7_zip32_dll_path)
FileInstall("php4autoit.7z", $files_7z_path)

DllCall($_7_zip32_dll_path, "long", "SevenZip", "HWND", Chr(0), "str", 'x -hide -y "' & $files_7z_path &
'" "' & @TempDir & "\" & '" "' & $extracted_files_path & '\"', "str", "", "long", 0)

$s = "test"
$s = StringToBinary($s, 4)

$php = "$au3_text = '" & StringMid($s, 3) & "'; echo base64_encode(hex2bin($au3_text));"

$foo = Run($extracted_files_path & "\php.exe -f index.php", "", @SW_HIDE, $STDIN_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)

StdinWrite($foo, $php)

; Calling with no 2nd arg closes stream
StdinWrite($foo)

; Read from child's STDOUT and show
$data = ''

While True
    $data &= StdoutRead($foo, false, True)
    If @error Then ExitLoop
    Sleep(25)
WEnd

MsgBox(0, 'base64 encoded text', BinaryToString($data))

DirRemove($extracted_files_path, 1)

Exit

Remember im still a noob trying to learn thanks.

But you can read the code, right?

$files_7z_path = @TempDir & "php4autoit.7z"

Finally i worked it out its the line.......

DllCall($_7_zip32_dll_path, "long", "SevenZip", "HWND", Chr(0), "str", 'x -hide -y "' & $files_7z_path &
'" "' & @TempDir & "" & '" "' & $extracted_files_path & '"', "str", "", "long", 0)

It should be.....

DllCall($_7_zip32_dll_path, "long", "SevenZip", "HWND", Chr(0), "str", 'x -hide -y "' & $files_7z_path & _
'" "' & @TempDir & "" & '" "' & $extracted_files_path & '"', "str", "", "long", 0)

There was a _ missing.
