Hi Jonathan,


> Last night, I discovered that I needed to use java_values() on the byte array 

Yes. java_values() converts a Java object to the appropriate PHP value(s), a PHP binary string in
this case.

However, people shouldn't need to write unnatural code; whenever PHP needs to convert a proxy into
a String, it calls $proxy->__toString(). On the server side the method is called
"ObjectToString(value)".

What about adding the following code to JavaBridge.java:


public String ObjectToString(byte[] value) {
// FIXME: use the StringCache
  try {
    return new String( (byte[])castToString(value), getOptions().getFileEncoding()); 
  } catch (IllegalEncodingException ex) {
    // shouldn't happen
    Util.printStackTrace(ex);
    return new String( (byte[])castToString(value) );
  }
}

Last night, I discovered that I needed to use java_values() on the byte =
array before it was comparable to the original data, i.e.

  $file =3D file_get_contents('foo.pdf');
  $javaObject->setData($file);
  $output =3D $javaObject->getData();
  strcmp($file, java_values($output)); // wrapped $output in =
java_values()

Otherwise, it would try to compare $file to =
[[o:array_of_B]:"[B@1c3ee45"].

Thanks for prodding me in the right direction.

Best,
Jonathan

Hi,

> supported in 4.x, or are they deprecated?  

the old C code doesn't exist anymore (exception: PHP4). The new C code is just a thin wrapper
around Java.inc and exists only for backward compatibility.

Compared with version 3.0.8 I'd expect it to be a little bit faster -- or slower, depending on the
application.
