Hey everyone,
I've been asked to work on a website that interacts with a database via an API.
I have the manual to the API and think I may be in over my head, but would like
to explore this a little more. Is it as Daunting as it looks? The database is
set up and the current old website (php) uses this API to interact with the
website, mostly letting customers update account info from the website. I don't
have access to the current website files.
About the API:
This ..." API is a COM+ application. It
provides a set of COM objects that can be manipulated by COM-
compliant development tools such as Visual Basic, Visual C++, Visual
C#, VSTA and so on. "
The manual lists classes with input paramaters and return values like:
"Example
The following example shows how to create a new user profile once the
account has been validated:
Dim objUserProfile as Object
Dim lRetCode as Integer
â
Set objUserProfile = CreateObject("API.cUserInfo")
"
I've been using CF for years, but don't know how to integrate with this.
Any tips or suggestions on where to look for help on this? Or does this require
knowledge of a different language altogether?
