Title: Automation Interface - Dual Interface
Post by: Darren Lock on March 05, 2002, 05:02:23 am

Would it be possible to extend the current Automation inteface into a Dual Interface i.e. vtable (early binding).

Having a typlib for this would give the benefits of compile time checking and Intellisense(autocomplete) in VB, VC++, etc.

Thanks, Darren.

Having a typelib would also allow the automation server to be driven by Java using IBM's bridge2java.  You can't generate the proxies without a typelib and EA.exe apparently doesn't contain a typelib.
