How to execute php code (with zend api) without open file

[Service4PC]

Hi all,
I've a problem... I'm writing an extension for php, and i need to
execute a file php... but only the content of the file and not the
file...
Now I better explain:
- the extension get the file content of a php file (php code and html
code mixed..)
- execute the content with some zend api function

I've already tried with zend_eval_string but not good because not
execute the html code/open php tag.
The same for zend_execute_script :(

If someone has used the zend api, i need your help

PS: sorry for my english, it is difficult to explain my goals :(

Hi,

Maybe I understand wrong, but if you need the raw PHP file, simply use
the fylesystem functions to do so, and NO URL wrapper.

for example:
GOOD:
// This will get the content of your PHP file
$Path = "/home/service42/public_html/myPHPfile.php";
$PHPContent = file_get_contents ($Path);

BAD:
// This will give you the result of the 'executed' file
$URL = "http://www.example.com/~service42/myPHPfile.php";
$PHPContent = file_get_contents ($URL);

An example maybe clarify the ideas...

file php:
<?php
myfunction('<pre><?php echo "hello world"; ?></pre>'); // this cannot
be execute with a simply eval :(
?>

file extension.c
[...]
PHP_FUNCTION(myfunction)
{
char *code;
int code_len;

if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "s", &code,
&code_len) == FAILURE) {
RETURN_NULL();
}

// how i can execute the source code of variable code????
// ...
}
[...]

i hope this help to explain my idea...

Hi,

[Please don't toppost, fixed]

I am still a bit at a loss.
You php file was this:
<?php
myfunction('<pre><?php echo "hello world"; ?></pre>');
?>

What do you expect from that file?
I mean: You can get its content via normal filesystemfunctions as I
described in my earlier post.

What really is strange is of course the content itsef:
myfunction('<pre><?php echo "hello world"; ?></pre>');

That is NOT executed PHP code: The "hello world" is not echo'ed at all.
It is just the literal string '<pre><?php echo "hello world"; ?></pre>'
being passed to some function.

I don't know how your application is set up or supposed to do, but this
looks like strange design to at first sight.
I might be missing something though...

Are you maybe writing some parser that will produce PHP sourcefiles itself?
(Then it would make sense.)

So sorry, it is still not clear to me. :-/

The OP is not writing PHP code. He's writing C code: a PHP extension to
add new functions to PHP.

Hi,

I understand that, but how does that explain this file he is working on
and posted as a troublesome example?

file php:
<?php
myfunction('<pre><?php echo "hello world"; ?></pre>');
?>

That is no C.
It looks to me like a PHPsourcebuilder application.

But maybe we better let Service4PC comment on it, since I am only
guessing here. I don't write PHP extensions myself.

I don't need to write any line of php code, i want to write a php
extension in c, the file php that i've posted is an example of the use
of my "function".
The php source content of the file for me is useless, because it will
passed to function without fopen (i've already the content, for this i
need this behavior).
This example:
<?php
myfunction('<pre><?php echo "hello world"; ?></pre>');
?>
is only the final result of creation of my extension, extending the
set of php functions with some "custom", the example just wanted to
clarify how the ideas will be used later.

The behavior should be as follows:
- The parameter (block of php code) is passed to my function
- The function internally prepare (in some way that I do not know)
the parameter
- Run (eg. eval) the code block

So, what is your overall goal? What, exactly, does your extension
do? It may be possible an extension doing what you want exists in
the PECL repository. It might also be possible what you're
attempting can be done natively in PHP.

I've already tried with zend_eval_string but not good because not
execute the html code/open php tag.
The same for zend_execute_script :(

Perhaps I'm too ignorant of PHP extension authoring, but I wasn't
able to turn up much documentation on the Zend API through web
searches. One of the best resources I did find was php.net's
documentation and the user notes.

<URL:http://php.net/manual/en/internals2.ze1.zendapi.php>

PS: sorry for my english, it is difficult to explain my goals :(

That's nothing to apologize for.
