Hi, > http://www.dsl.uow.edu.au/~sk33/php5java.htm isn't it possible to follow the install instructions that came with the PHP/Java Bridge download instead? No Jost, I am sorry, but the documentation (and imho the file/directory structure of the archive) that comes with the PHP/Java Bridge leaves a lot to be desired to say the least. This is why most people (including myself) resort to the page mentioned above and I assume this is why this page is also mentioned in the official PHP/Java Bridge website. I would suggest putting all the different READMEs and installation guides in one big file and re-organizing them because it's not evident where one has to look for by the filename itself. I would also suggest providing a different dll/so (where needed) for the different versions of PHP because especially people who work on windows are not likely to compile (or have access to a compiler and the necessary knowledge to use it in the first place) any source code. This is why most PHP extensions provide these pre-compiled windows binaries. Finally, you should not assume that people who are trying to install/use the PHP/Java Bridge are proficient or even familiar with Java terminology. Last time I worked with Java was back in JDK 1.1, long before J2EE, Java Beans, Java Servlets and all sorts of other technical jargon came into play. Please don't get me wrong, I know you are trying to help and I appreciate you offering this library to the open-source community. I hope you will take the above as constructive criticism. :-) > I spent a lot of time trying to make it run with PHP 5.2.x and had no > luck. The pure Java implementation works with all PHP versions. The old php_java.dll or java.so only works with PHP4. (it may work with some PHP5 implementations, too, but we don't support it).
