It would add a big bunch of functionallity to php on Windows platforms if there would be the possibility to call exported dll funtions from within php. Like the way visual basic declares those func's and calls them!

So... developers could create there special libraries (graphics, data query, ... ) and call these from php!

Maybe there is already such a feature, but i did not find any?

the COM-support added to php v4.x is good, but sometimes calling exported functions is a little bit straighter and faster...

AFAIK, the new (and still expirimental) w32api-extension does what you want.
