Blocking in ActiveX (General questions)

by Dave, Thursday, June 30, 2005, 13:36 (7085 days ago)

Hi.

The help file says blocking is only supported in the COM object, yet the property is present in the ActiveX control and appears to affect the functionality (i.e. if I enable it, the next line of code doesn't run until the current command has been executed).

What's the situation ? Have I misread the help file ?

Great product by the way, saving me hours of work messing around with APIs !

Dave.

Dave,

it wasn't there at the beginning, it doesn't make sense to have blocking and GUI in the same way (you block, and then user double-clicks, and then what??) but some customers requested it anyway so we added it - feel free to use it.

Hi,

Thanks for the prompt response.
I know what you're saying, but basically I'm creating an application that sits on a server and polls at regular intervals.
I wanted the OCX because it's easier to use the DirItems collection (plus it's nice to have an indication of what the application's up to on screen with nice icons !).

Anyway, it's working now and I fixed the other problem what was really bugging me - turned out there was an FTP bug in my router's firmware (Netgear DG834).

Thanks again.

Dave.

It was no small factor, however, that your support in getting me up and running made me buy from you.
