Oh dear,
I had a look at the code in the zip file and this wrapper is simply calls to the Zint binary. I was expecting the wrapper to actually be a PHP extension which could be compiled in to the PHP binary.
There are two choices here, we can either use Zint as calls to the binary and go through the headache of storing the generated images (on disk or in the database), and all the faffing around that goes on with them such as verifying referential integrity etc.
Alternatively you folks can wait until I get around to doing the barcode bits for my current client where I can work with the Zint guys to create an actual extension .so for PHP. I’m afraid I’m limited in my knowledge for creating a .dll for Windows versions. I don’t know if anyone else on this list is competent in this?
Maybe worth putting this proposal to the PHP and PEAR mailing lists to see if any of them want to take up the challenge, since their own barcode stuff is flakey at best.
Kindest regards,
Paul

As promised, here is the code I have. It was written for Zint 2.1 so I guess
will need alteration to work with 2.3.
