ActiveX Installation Guide

note

This feature works only with the SAP User Interface plugin type.

ActiveX support in the Computec.AppEngine ecosystem enhances the functionality of the SAP User Interface plugin by ensuring the seamless integration of additional components.

The ActiveX mechanism checks if the component is installed. If not, it attempts to install it. In cases where the SAP Business One application lacks sufficient privileges, a message will appear on the screen, and a batch command will be copied to the clipboard.

The user will then need to:

1. Open Command Prompt as an administrator.
2. Paste the command and press Enter.

Adding ActiveX Support

In the PluginInfo, add the following line:

ActiveXComponents = new ActiveXInstallDefinition[]
{
    new ("7B3C32C6-2856-1AB9-A132-CA5FBCC90115",
        "ProcessForce.Gantt\CompuTec.ProcessForce.Gantt.dll")
};

where:

• GUID is the CLSID of the ActiveX component.
• Path is a relative path to the plugin manifest.

Update Mechanism

The system compares the version of the installed library with the version from the specified path to detect if an update of the ActiveX component is required.
