Oh great!  Lucky me.  I thought that was the case since I wrote the original 
wrapper in VB6 three frameworks ago.  I was hoping I wouldn't have to re-live 
that experience.  Oh well.  Thanks for the advice.

Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: COM object causing thread termination


The newer servers break many/most COM objects. The only solution is to get the 
author of the com object to update it to work with witango, good luck, or find 
another solution to do the same thing, like an executable. Or don't upgrade. 
Unfortunately, I don't think there is ANY workaround except to write your own 
executable wrapper around the com object that can be run itself from witango. I 
have done this before, its not pretty, but it works.

Hi all,

I upgraded my Witango App server to 5.5.020 from the original 5.5 (003?) 
release.

My PDF417 barcode generator COM object no longer functions.  Once it's 
instantiated it just terminates the thread.

I checked my handlers.ini file, which is:
[COM]
ShortName=COM / DCOM Objects
SupportsScanning=0
LoadHandler=1
ServerPath=C:\\Program Files\\WitangoServer\\5.5\\wshcm501.dll  

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
