Chapter 20 Creating ActiveX Clients

Upgrading version 1.1 clients

Clients developed for Jaguar 1.1 can be adapted to run in this version by following the steps below:

Complete the upgrade procedure, including running the JaguarUpgrade utility. For more information, see the Enterprise Application Server Installation Guide for Windows or the Enterprise Application Studio Installation Guide for Windows.
Regenerate and reregister .tlb and .reg files for the components that the ActiveX client uses.
On the machine that the ActiveX client runs, define an environment variable that maps the Datasource Name to the machine name and IIOP port number. For example, if the ODBC Datasource name is JaguarServer, then define an environment variable, JS_JaguarServer, that has a value of puddle:9000.
Specify the environment variable in the Host property of the ActiveX client. For example, specify this code when setting the connection properties:
```
employeeproxy.Host = "JaguarServer"
```
