Re: Using .Net assemblies with PHP

In my testing, I can load a browser page with 1,000 
encryption/decryption operations in less than 2 seconds. Since I really 
only need to do at most a couple at a time (which comes back instantly), 
I can't really complain about the performance. And it certainly beats my 
testing of dotnet (when it actually works).

I do see the advantage of how you did it, but I was looking for a more 
generic solution that could be used for multiple assemblies, rather than 
having to write a custom interface for each one. And, just to be clear, 
I did not write the universalccw library. I actually stumbled upon it 
when I was trying to figure out how to make the dotnet stuff work. 
Apparently the author had similar frustrations and decided to do his own.

Anyway, I just thought I'd pass the info on in case it helps someone 
else avoid the frustration that I've been going through for the last few 
days. :)
