I am new to the list, so I hope I'm not asking a frequently asked

But I need to install the ActiveX bridge.
My assumption is, that it doesn't come included, but I must run the
build.
I run the build, it errors.
The website says I need Microsoft Visual C++ installed, to accesss
midl.exe
I have Microsoft Visual Studiio .NET C++ installed, I don't know where
midl.exe would be.
I also have an old copy of Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0, it won't install on
Windows XP,
But I can see a copy of midl.exe on the disk, I copied it over.
Anyway, build errors every time.
I ran the build command from the website:
build -DJRE_HOME=C:\PROGRA~1\Java\j2re1.5.0 activex
I substituted my own JRE_HOME. I get this error:
dist-client-fast:

Here is the original description from SUN:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/beans/axbridge/developerguide/index.html
Our build.xml does do those steps for you.
Please try to run 'packager.exe' as described in SUN's description manually
from the DOS prompt to find out the problem. After fixing this
our build.bat should run fine.
best regards,
Marcel
