Description:
------------
.Net framework version 3.5 (latest) is installed.

Installed a specific .Net component, but PHP fails to instantiate the object. 

The script is runnning from command line.


The standard example:
$stack = new DOTNET("mscorlib", "System.Collections.Stack"); 
$stack->Push(".Net"); 
$stack->Push("Hello "); 
echo $stack->Pop() . $stack->Pop();

Works fine - returns "Hello .Net"
Seems like lot's of users have problems using .Net objects from PHP - can you confirm this as a bug or is a local problem ?

Reproduce code:
---------------
$pdf = new DOTNET("Assembly=ABCpdf, Version=6.1.1.5, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=a7a0b3f5184f2169", "Websupergoo.ABCpdf6.Doc");

(needs to install ABCpdf 6.1 .Net from www.websupergoo.com)

Expected result:
----------------
nothing

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Fatal error : Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message 'Failed to instantiate .Net object [CreateInstance] [0x80131047]' in D:\dotnet\dotnet.php
Stack trace:
#0 (snip) dotnet->dotnet('Assembly=ABCpdf...', 'Websupergoo.ABCpdf6.Doc')
#1 {main}
thrown in D:\dotnet\dotnet.php

.Net framework 3.5 installed. PHP version 2.3.0.
I have created class library in C# called TestLibrary.dll.
It has only one class:

namespace TestLibrary
{
    public class Test
    {
        public string GetString() { return "Test passed"; }
    }
}

Then signed it and added it to GAC. In C:\Windows\assembly I have found all values needed:
Version: 1.0.0.0
Culture: Neutral
Public Key Token: c42df41937303b82

Script:

<?php
$test = new DOTNET("TestLibrary, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c42df41937303b82'", "TestLibrary.Test");
print($test->GetString());
?>

Expected result:
Test passed


Actual result:

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message 'Failed to instantiate .Net object [CreateInstance] [0x80131047] ' in C:\home\Projects\hi_1289_IT-ZEB-SERVER\trunk\src\PHPWithNETTest\index.php:10

#1 {main}
  thrown in C:\home\Projects\hi_1289_IT-ZEB-SERVER\trunk\src\PHPWithNETTest\index.php on line 10

Just had to replace:

"TestLibrary, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c42df41937303b82'"

with:

"TestLibrary, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c42df41937303b82"

Sorry for spam, one sign "'" caused this error. Now the result is "Test passed".

Is this still an issue with any of the actively supported PHP
versions[1]?  Note that as of PHP 8.0.0, you can (and likely have)
to set com.dotnet_version[2] for this to work.  Prior to PHP 8.0.0,
you may be out of luck, and need to workaround.
