Hi,
If you have some apps or components which was written in Object Pascal
and you would like to use them in Web applications (client-side,
previously installed) what is the best option to choose nowadays?
My users use Windows so, I thought in ActiveX. It works, but I think
Chrome do not use anymore, right?
Is there a way to call an Exe (previously installed, no problem with
that) to interact with an Exe, working in IE and Chrome?
Exe is a security hazard that could barf up a person's hard drive
instantly or create viruses..
ActiveX is indeed the closest thing to it, as it is like a program that
is run from the browser, but in some kind of sandbox that does not allow
it to do too much damage, although someone probably found a security
issue with it and wrote a virus maybe years ago..
