[texworks] QT-script and XML?

[Paul A Norman]

Dear Stefan,

Yes I come from an initial Delphi (TurboPascal) background.

For that, one Serhiy Perevoznyk  ( serge_perevoznyk  AT  hotmail.com )
developed n very useful  tie in for PHP which works really well.  All
his source code is available at
http://users.telenet.be/ws36637/php4delphi.html

"• PHP4Applications (integrate PHP in any application)
Supports C, C++, Visual Basic, VBA, etc…

PHP4Delphi  is a Visual Development Framework for creating custom PHP
Extensions using Delphi. PHP extension, in the most basic of terms, is
a set of instructions that is designed to add functionality to PHP.

PHP4Delphi also allows executing the PHP scripts within the Delphi
program directly from file or memory. You can read and write global
PHP variables and set the result value.

PHP4Delphi allows you to embed the PHP interpreter into your Delphi
application so you can extend and customize the application without
having to recompile it.

PHP4Delphi is organized into the following subprojects:

• PHP scripting (using PHP in Delphi applications)
PHP4Delphi allows to execute the PHP scripts within the Delphi program
directly without a WebServer.

• PHP extensions development framework (using Delphi to extend PHP
functionality)
Visual Development Framework gives possibility to create custom PHP
Extensions using Delphi."

I'll try and look out any more information I may have on a more
directly C like approach - but I think Serihy's work has all the logic
in it.

Paul
