Re: CACHE client version

[Timur Safin]

Hmm, we do maintain some server version information handy, internally at the Factory 
classes. But this information is not accessible thru ActiveX, but rather kept internally 
incapsulated to the C++ classes (CCacheLink to be specific). As a quick'n'dirty 
work-around I'd suggest you to use Factory.Static method to  get access to %SYSTEM.Version 
facilities from VB(VBS). Something like this (beware of VBS syntax I use here!):

        Dim Factory, Obj
        ' Create an instance of the CacheObject Factory
        Set Factory = WScript.CreateObject("CacheObject.Factory")
        Factory.Connect "cn_iptcp:127.0.0.1[1972]:SAMPLES"
        WScript.Echo "Created Factory Object"
        ' System build version
        Set Obj = Factory.Static("%SYSTEM.Version")
        WScript.Echo "%System.Version.GetMajor(): " & Obj.GetMajor()
        WScript.Echo "%System.Version.GetMinor(): " & Obj.GetMinor()
        Set Obj = Nothing
        Set Factory = Nothing
See Cache' documatic for information about other useful methods in that 
%SYSTEM.Version:

I need to check this from my application, and it's not nice to rely on
hardcoded paths. Also there could be several CacheObject.dll in the system,
but only one registered. I need to know, after calling factory.Connect,
which is the version number of the client currently used.
