PHP and AS400

[jorge]

what is new for PHP accessing the AS400 (regular Physical and Logical files)

what about Zend Core, is it reliable and popular these days?

How can I start on this?

Thanks for any response

Re: PHP and AS400

go to Zend's website. they have forums specifically dedicated to this. Zend Core is just as reliable (or more so) on this platform. accessing physical files, etc can be done using the "standard" db_ functions or by using the "i" specific i5_ functions. you can download the Zend software (core, PHP, mysql) from their website. the install is very easy.

Re: PHP and AS400

Zend Core has been replaced by Zend Server for i. I think 5.0.2 is the latest version. This bypasses the Apache server and performs a bit better. But Zend is definitely the resource for starting out. Take advantage of your 12 month Silver support for i customers.
