Calls PHP function with list of parameters. Returns exactly one value. =item include, include_once, require, require_once Shortcuts to the identical PHP constructs. =item array [ $REFERENCE ] Returns a handle to a newly created C object, which can be accessed both as array and hash reference: $_ = PHP::array; $_->[42] = 'hello'; $_->{world} = '!'; If $REFERENCE is a C instance, then the newly created object is a pheudo-hash alias to the PHP array behind the $REFERENCE. If no $REFERENCE is given, a new PHP array is created. =item PHP::Object->new($class_name, @parameters) Instantiates a PHP object of PHP class $class_name and returns a handle to it. The methods of the class can be called directly via the handle: my $obj = PHP::Object-> new( 'MyClass', @params_to_constructor); $object-> method( @some_params); The relevant class constructor is called, if available, according to PHP specification, that is different between v4 and v5. The v4 constructor has identical name with the class name; the v5 constructor can also be named C<__construct>. =item PHP::Entity->tie($array_handle, $tie_to) Ties existing handle to a PHP entity to either a perl hash or a perl array. The tied hash or array can be used to access PHP pseudo_hash values indexed either by string or integer value. The PHP entity can be either an array, represented by C, or an object, represented by C. In the latter case, the object properties are represented as hash/array values. =item PHP::Entity->link($original, $link) Records a reference to an arbitrary perl scalar $link as an alias to $original C object. This is used internally by C and C, but might be also used for other purposes. =item PHP::Entity::unlink($link) Removes association between a C object and $link. =item PHP::Array->tie($self, $tie_to) Same as L<< PHP::Entity->tie >>, but operates on C objects. =item PHP::Array->handle Returns PHP array handle, a C object. =item PHP::options Contains set of internal options. If called without parameters, returns the names of the options. If called with a single parameter, return the associated value. If called with two parameters, replaces the associated value. =over =item debug $integer If set, loads of debugging information are dumped to stderr Default: 0 =item stdout/stderr $callback C and C options define callbacks that are called when PHP decides to print something or complain, respectively. Default: undef =item version Read-only option; returns the version of PHP library compiled with . =back =back =head1 DEBUGGING Environment variable C, if set to 1, turns the debug mode on. The same effect can be achieved programmatically by calling PHP::options( debug => 1); =head1 INSTALLATION The module uses php-embed SAPI extension to inter-operate with PHP interpreter. That means php must be configured with '--enable-embed' parameters prior to using the module. Also, no '--with-apxs' must be present in to configuration agruments either, otherwise the PHP library will be linked with Apache functions, and will be unusable from the command line. The C code in F is required for PHP to load correctly its extensions. If your platform does RTLD_GLOBAL by default and croaks upon this line, it is safe to remove the line. =head1 WHY? While I do agree that in general it is absolutely pointless to use PHP functionality from within Perl, scenarios where one must connect an existing PHP codebase to something else, are not something unusual. Also, this module might be handy for people who know PHP but are afraid of switching to Perl, or want to reuse their old PHP code. Currently, not all of PHP functionality is implemented, but OTOH I don't really expect this module to grow that big, because I believe it is easier to call C rather than implement all the subtleties of Zend API. There are no callbacks to Perl from PHP code, and I don't think these are needed, because one thing is to be lazy and not to rewrite PHP code, and another is to make new code in PHP that uses Perl when PHP is not enough. As I see it, the latter would kill all incentive to switch to Perl, so I'd rather leave callbacks unimplemented. =head1 SEE ALSO Using Perl code from PHP: L =head1 COPYRIGHT This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. =head1 AUTHOR Dmitry Karasik =cut
