Hi,

I am in a need of running the PHP parser for PHP code inside PHP. I am on Windows, and I have tried

system("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PHP\\php.exe -l \"C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache/htdocs/a.php\"", $output);
var_dump($output);

without luck. The parameter -l should check for correct PHP syntax, and throw errors if some problems exist. Basically, I want to do something similar to this picture:

That is, to be able to detect errors in code.
