CodeJock ActiveX Installer

[NewsArchive]

Friedrich,

in another thread a while back you mentioned that you would post an example of
your SB script for installing/registering the various CodeJock ActiveX controls.

Did you post it somewhere and I just missed it? If so I apologize, could you
point me to it or re-post?

Thanks!

No, you did not miss it. We were too busy with SetupBuilder 6.9 and 7.0 to
make the CodeJock ActiveX "include script" available :-(

I'll post the script here within the next 24 hours. Sorry for the delay :-(

Sorry, the "false-positive" slowed things down here. I'll upload the script
tomorrow.

Friedrich,

Had a go with this. Found an odd behavior. CodeJock's C# Ribbon Bar example
works fine. A Clarion program can only use it with elevated permissions. I dug
around some and had a look at the registry permissions (see image) and found
"Account Unknown(S-1-5-5-0-39208876)", but no COMPUTER\Users, as I expected.

Feels like some kind of Vista weirdness, but I thought I'd run this by you
before I called MS and asked for a refund. :)

Where did you find their .NET examples? I have been (very briefly) looking
at that site to try to figure out if any of this worked with .NET but hadn't
seen any info on it.

They are part of the licensed product. I picked up the Active-X Command Bars
product to have a go at the Ribbon Bar with Andy's class. Works nicely.

Thinking about going back and getting CodeJock's C++ product, but haven't a
clue how to interface Clarion with C++ classes. Any idea? I'm guessing I'd
need to create a WINAPI/pascal call layer between the two.

There is nothing the installer can do here. All the ActiveX are
"self-registering". That means the ActiveX registers itself in the
Registry. The installer only executes this process.

I am using the Command Bars ActiveX for over a year now and applications
work without elevation under Vista.

Permissions look like this (see attached screenshot).

Exactly what I expected. I'll get in touch with CodeJock.

Thanks, Friedrich.

Cool! I'm looking at this for next year release and I haven't decided yet
if I'll do the interface in win32 in Clarion or in C#.

COM? I've done some C++ classes to clarion by using a function in C++ that
I call from Clarion. This function instantiates the class and uses it, but
then you have to do everything in that function. I'm not much of a C guru
so I'm sure others will have more insight;)
