I've actually been considering writing a SPECIAL file driver for running QShell or PASE programs (including PHP). Parameters would determine which tool to run and what the command line is. You'd write to the Unix tool's STDIN using ordinary RPG output. Read from the Unix tool's STDOUT using ordinary RPG input.

Actually, I started writing this tool awhile back... never finished it. It got lost in the shuffle somewhere.

Interesting idea?

Hello All,
After playing around a bit and reading Jeffs PHP book and the Zend docs
I realized that PHP scripts can also be run outside the browser to do
stuff.
I written a CL command wrapper around the PHP-CLI calls so that I can
call a PHP script, let it do its thing and place the output into an
OUTFILE so I can process it from an RPG or CL program.
As an RPG developer using this technique will allow me to use PHP
scripts from any CL or RPG program.
Not bad for day two of learning :-)
