Kindly see the attached ZIP for the article and associated projects. Anyway, here is a short introduction. As you know, now a days, the term Application
Server is becoming so hot. An Application Server
is a software that runs on the middle layer. I mean; it runs between a thin front end (in this case the web browser) and
back end servers.
Most Application Servers rely on Internet Servers, to pass
information/data to clients on the web. Application Servers are expected to support COM (Component Object Model) and/or CORBA (Common
Object Request Broker Architecture) frameworks.
In this case, we are creating an Application Server that supports COM interface.
After reading this, you can
- Get an idea about Application Servers.
- Create and use your own COM based Application Servers.
- Write directly to RESPONSE object from
a COM component (Got it? Instead of passing a value back to a variable in ASP to write it to response object, write
directly to response object from your component)
- See how to integrate additional logic (say your existing
business COM objects) using our Application Server
Also, if you are the CEO of an IT/Web
company, don't forget to read about my ventures in the preface section
:-). OOPS, forgot to tell all of you one thing; VOTE for me please,
because I took nearly 6-7 hours to write this completely :-) (ofcourse, the brain work is extra.lol.)
Always ur's Anoop, anoopj13@yahoo.com

So what it does is allows you to do is
create objects compiled in VB and run
the functions of the vb code? That iss
cool! If I'm wrong correct me!
|
10/22/2000 10:48:38 PM:Anoop
Jon, it allows you to use the ASP
objects (Response, Request etc)
directly from your VB application, to
scale your existing business
application to multiple levels, and
even to create a better application
server than Cold Fusion. :-) Regards,
Anoop

Wow - What a great teacher you are.
Thank you for the clear logic that
un-muddled what had always been
confusing to me in the past. I really
apppreciate your hard work.

First I will say thanks for the COM
code sample there are very few good
ones on the Planet. I had one question,
Why did you choose to use late binding
for the ASP objects in your project?
Certainly with an Application Server
you would not want to create any slow
downs with binding issues..? Just some
small feedback from CShellVB.

10/23/2000 11:46:21 AM:Anoop
Hey People, Thank you really for all
the appreciation. And well, CShellVB -
I also do not support late binding..but
in this case, my preference is for
understandability :-) .. ur's Anoop

I feel that a lot of people have doubt
about 'Creating an Alias'. Here is
it.
An Alias is nothing other than a
URL for a mapped directory. In PWS,
goto Advanced section, click Add
button, and in the Directory textbox,
type the directory where the ASP file
resides. In the Alias text box, type
something (say <myalias>). Then take
your browser, and type
http://<yourserver>/<myalias>. If you
have PWS in your system, you can type
http://localhost/<myalias>.: Regards,
Anoop

I have been programming for over 3
years now in VB and I have read all the
books and this is one of the simplest
explinations of a web server app I have
seen - you have my vote.

With out doubt, this one is the
greatest brainstormer I have seen so
far in PSC. Really great idea. And
thank you sincerely for the time you
took for writing this..

Commendable! ;) A+, 100%, 5 huge
whoppin planets for this guy!
In
other words, Very nice work! Easy to
understand, VERY well written, and
recommended for anyone interested in
writing application servers! :) Keep it
up Anoop!

I'm running a PWS and tried it.
But
it gave me this:
Microsoft VBScript
runtime error '800a01ad'
ActiveX
component can't create object:
'AppServer.Handler'
/banner/Default.asp, line 55
I
didn't change anything on the ASP file
and I tried running the project file
before I typed the URL on my browser
and press enter.
When I compiled it,
it was an EXE. Do i need to register it
as something.
Anyways, I liked it. I
understand how it works.

Great Code and Excellent Comments -
Same problem as Benjo (3/17/2001)
though:
Microsoft VBScript runtime

can't create object...
WHAT TO DO,
WHAT TO DO ???
