Hey guys I am thinking of trying to combine C++ network programing with PHP I have knowledge in PHP/MySQL/AJAX and etc but haven’t got much in C++. SO I am thinking of building A web apps. And making clients for them using Cpp/Qt4 as example:
The php app is a chat application/server that offers the users to chat in rooms or PMs and etc. ( Like IRC ).
And would want to make a chat client in Cpp/Qt4 to be downloadable and use the same server. Like (mIRC)
- Should I use PHP as a server or I should reconsider another language?
- Is Qt4 a good suggestion or I have to reconsider?
- How should I connect PHP to C++ ?
I would like to help me with some techniques or resources that I should refer to.
Thank you in advance!
Cheers!
I’ll suggest you look into developing a SaaS based application using PHP, Ruby, Node or any other serverside language you prefer..
In this way, you’ll only have to worry about creating the interface in c++ and interacting with the API you’ve created. Connections to the database and other requests will be done over the server
