Hi all,
m a .net programmer, fairly new to php
can anyone explain me (m not asking to explain in detail) this php code. its in the index.php of an application.
I am not gonna irritate you by posting the whole code. so here's the outline:
<?php
if(!extension_loaded('ionCube Loader')){
$__oc=strtolower(substr(php_uname(),0,3));
$__ln='ioncube_loader_'.$__oc.'_'.substr(phpversion(),0,3).(($__oc=='win')?'.dll':'.so');
@dl($__ln);
if(function_exists('_il_exec')){
return _il_exec();
}
$__ln='/ioncube/'.$__ln;
$__oid=$__id=realpath(ini_get('extension_dir'));
$__here=dirname(__FILE__);
##############
more code was here but i am not posting here to keep it short
################
}
else{
die('The file '.__FILE__." is corrupted.\n");
}
if(function_exists('_il_exec')){
return _il_exec();
}
echo('Site error: the file <b>'.__FILE__.'</b> requires the ionCube PHP Loader '.basename($__ln).' to be installed by the site administrator.');
exit(199);
?>
######################################## and so on this encrypted THING goes on for like 20 more lines
there's nothing else in the file..
i can't seem to figure out what's with the encrypted thing
any help is appreciated
