has given to a set of "strategic" object-oriented
programming technologies and tools. The main
technology is the Component Object Model (COM). Used
in a network with a directory and additional support,
COM becomes the Distributed Component Object Model
(DCOM). The main thing that you create when writing a
program to run in the ActiveX environment is a
component, a self-sufficient program that can be run
anywhere in your ActiveX network (currently a network
consisting of Windows and Macintosh systems). This
component is known as an ActiveX control. ActiveX is
Microsoft's answer to the Java technology from Sun
Microsystems. An ActiveX control is roughly
equivalent to a Java applet. One of the main
advantages of a component is that it can be re-used
by many applications (referred to as component
containers). A COM component object (ActiveX control)
can be created using one of several languages or
development tools, including C++ and Visual Basic, or
PowerBuilder, or with scripting tools such as
VBScript. Currently, ActiveX controls run in
Windows 95/98/NT/2000 and in Macintosh.
