Description:
------------
runtime: .Net Framework 3.5


I need to add a button to a windows form. 
When I run the script "$x->Control", it generates warning message as follows:  

Warning: main(): variant->zval: conversion from 0xd ret=-1 in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\ofg.php

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$x = new DOTNET('System.Windows.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089', 'System.Windows.Forms.Form', CP_UTF8);
$y = $x->Controls;
$x->showDialog();
?>

Expected result:
----------------
$y = $x->Controls;

^^^^ $y must be Object

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: main(): variant->zval: conversion from 0xd ret=-1 in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\ofg.php

Description:
------------
Error is valid.
Trying to create a dialog with .NET, but basic functions are failing to proceed.

Reproduce code:
---------------
		$form1 = new DOTNET("System.Windows.Forms, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089", 'System.Windows.Forms.Form');
		$button1 = new DOTNET("System.Windows.Forms, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089", 'System.Windows.Forms.Button');
		$button1->Text = "Press me!";
		$form1->Controls->Add($button1);
		$form1->Show();

Expected result:
----------------
Add a button control to the form.

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: main(): variant->zval: conversion from 0xd ret=-1 in D:\xampplite\php\form1.php on line 10
PHP Fatal error:  Call to a member function Add() on a non-object in D:\xampplite\php\form1.php on line 10

This means that the variant conversion (as the error says) failed, 0xD is the variant type value of the object being converted. 0xD evaluates to 13 which is VT_UNKNOWN, an object that implements the IUnknown interface.

I however doubt theres anyone who will look at fixing this anytime soon as COM/dotnet needs an active maintainer

I've posted a patch.

I'm not sure whether it works well or not.

I'm not proficient enough in C to even compile PHP.  Until this bug is fixed in a stable release, is it possible to define a PHP class that mirrors the COM class and cast the object into that class so that I can access its functions and properties?

That COM object is supposed to implement IDispatch, but apparently
it does not; converting it to a PHP Variant (like in the attached
patch accept-LPUNKNOWN) would not solve the problem (while it
makes the OP's test script work, it still leaves a practically
unusable Controls object, because it only postpones the problem).

Doesn't make sense to wait for a magic fix – changing to doc
issue.
