I wouldn't think it should matter much, but I notice you've got your
VB function declared to return a String, and never give it a value.
Shouldn't it just return the Integer value that the internal function
call is returning?
' VB Function
Public Function DMStoTIFFconv(ByVal FullPathFrom As String, ByVal FullPathTo
As String) As Integer
DMStoTIFFconv = DTM_CONVDMSToMultiTIFF(FullPathFrom, FullPathTo)
End Function
Also, I'm wondering whether the double-slashes are getting passed into
the object method rather than being treated as escape characters. You
might try passing one of those values to your Hello() method to make
sure they are going into your class correctly.
This also doesn't begin to delve into whether the COM object uses the
same security context as PHP. I would think so, but that's just a
guess.
