pass by reference is deprecated. you have to pack your value into a VARIANT object and unpack it afterwards.

$vVar = new VARIANT($Var);
/* VARIANT($Var [, VT_BSTR [,CP_ACP]]) */
$jServer->GetB("NN", $vVar);

echo $vVar->value;
echo $vVar->type;
/* one of VT_BSTR, VTUI4, VT_BYREF|VT_*, .... */

btw, in 4.0.5 the com extension is not working properly, maybe you have to wait for 4.0.6 (or use the -dev version)

here my problem with COM in PHP.

<?
echo "J-Server in der dynamischen PHP-Web-Site. <br><br>";

$jServer = new COM("jexeserver") or DIE ("Connect zum J Server ist nicht
möglich");
$jServer->Show(1);
$jServer->Log(1);

$jServer->Do("0!:0 <(1!:40''),'systemextrasconfigprofile.ijs'");
$jServer->Do("load'd:\j_tm1dll\j\tm1api.ijs'");
$jServer->Do("load'd:\j_tm1dll\j\tm1con.ijs'");
$jServer->Do("load'd:\j_tm1dll\j\tm1prop.ijs'");
$jServer->Do("load'd:\j_tm1dll\j\tm1view.ijs'");

$jServer->Do("Tm1On''");
$jServer->Do("Tm1AdmSet'OLAPLINE01'");
$jServer->Do("SrvCon'zeiterf';'Admin';''");

#$jServer->Do("NN=:'XXX'");

$Var = "xxx";
$jServer->SetB("NN", $Var); // In the COM server: NN = $Var
$jServer->Do("NN"); // Display NN in the COM server
$jServer->Do("NN=:'yyy'"); // In the COM server: NN = "yyy"

$jServer->GetB("NN", &$Var); // <=============== There is my problem: (& is a refernce)
                                               // In the COM server &$Var = NN
echo $Var; // echo $Var Output: xxx and not yyy ?!?

$jServer->Quit();

?>

Is there a bug in my code or is this a bug in COM ???
