Viewing Python's shelve objects in PHP

Question

I am using Python for indexing utilizing the shelve functionality and I was wondering whether it was possible to open and read the files in PHP.

I checked out the PHP Shelve option and it doesn't seem to be working on PHP 5.X I am getting (when running the example they gave me)

PHP Fatal error: Cannot pass parameter 2 by reference in test.php on line 205

Even still, I don't think I'd get the same performance writing to the shelve in PHP as I would in Python.

Answer 1

I'm not sure how mature or well developed that project is, but, if I had that need, I would try the Python In PHP project.
