Mike,
An EXE suggests it will do something additionally to the functionality
you
are describing. Perhaps a UI or data validations.
If this is not the case, I would make it a Multi-threaded COM DLL.
Though
that would mean you need to distribute the VFP9T.DLL.
There is the Single-threaded COM DLL as another option. I believe it
does
not require the VFP9T.DLL.
Yeah I agree it shouldn't be an EXE since no UI. I had tried the DLL
approach but for some reason it didn't work. It's not an OLEPUBLIC
class (at least not yet); it's just a Separator class (to be
lightweight, although in today's world, nobody would notice the
difference between a Separator and Session or Custom class).
I was trying to invoke it this way:
IF tlEntering THEN
loLicense =
NEWOBJECT("MBSS_Licensor","MBSS_Licensor.prg","MBSS_Licensor.exe",.F.,
tlEntering, .F., pcPrintID, this.oUser.cUserID,
this.oClient.cClientName, STRTRAN(_screen.cAppName,'\','\\'))
this.iLicenseKey = loLicense.iLicenseKey
IF this.iLicenseKey < 1 THEN && problem
llOK = .F.
loLicense.ShowMessage()
ELSE
llOK = .T.
ENDIF
ELSE && exiting software; release license
loLicense =
NEWOBJECT("MBSS_Licensor","MBSS_Licensor.prg","MBSS_Licensor.exe",.F.,
tlEntering, this.iLicenseKey, pcPrintID)
IF loLicense.lProblem THEN
llOK = .F.
loLicense.ShowMessage()
ELSE
llOK = .T.
ENDIF
ENDIF
It doesn't instantiate.
Does it have to be an OLEPUBLIC class? I'm not doing that currently:
DEFINE CLASS MBSS_Licensor AS Session
I'm trying to avoid the registry; I just want to plunk the DLL into the
App's folder and have it reference it from there.
