com_load_typelib

Loads a type-library and registers its constants in the engine, as though they were defined using define().

Note that it is much more efficient to use the configuration setting to pre-load and register the constants, although not so flexible.

If you have turned on , then PHP will attempt to automatically register the constants associated with a COM object when you instantiate it. This depends on the interfaces provided by the COM object itself, and may not always be possible.

typelib_name can be one of the following:

• The filename of a .tlb file or the executable module that contains the type library.

• The type library GUID, followed by its version number, for example {00000200-0000-0010-8000-00AA006D2EA4},2,0.

• The type library name, e.g. Microsoft OLE DB ActiveX Data Objects 1.0 Library.

The case_insensitive behaves in the same way as the parameter with the same name in the define() function.

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
