Mabry's HTTP/X ActiveX control provides easy, high-
level access to the complete HTTP client protocol.
HTTP/X was designed to be as programmer-friendly as
possible, by providing features such as automatic
connect and disconnect for single interactions with
HTTP/X servers. And for more advanced uses, HTTP/X
also directly supports the more sophisticated
pipelined request mechanisms used by today's servers.
The 32-bit HTTP/X comes as both an ActiveX control
(OCX) and a COM object (DLL), so you can use it in
nearly any modern programming environment. As a light
ActiveX control/COM Object, HTTP/X doesn't require any
bulky MFC DLLs to run. Your web-based applications
(VBScript, ASP, etc.) will download faster, your
installation package will be smaller, and you'll have
no problems with different versions of DLLs on your
users' systems. And, because it's both an ActiveX
control and COM Object, HTTP/X will run in Visual
Basic, Visual FoxPro, Internet Explorer, Delphi and
any other environment that supports either ActiveX
controls or COM objects.
Both the HTTP/X ActiveX control and COM Object use the
normal event-driven programming model or Fast
Notifications. Fast Notifications allow your program
to quickly receive events through simple functions,
rather than going through the overhead to fire an
event. This reduces the amount of time required to
handle an event.
HTTP/X supports non-blocking (asynchronous) mode as
well as pseudo-blocking and true blocking modes,
thereby meeting any programming requirements you may
have. HTTP/X also provides direct support for use
behind firewalls.
Mabry's HTTP/X ActiveX control requires no user input
to run. The HTTP/X control can run completely in the
background under program control. This allows your
program to take care of file transfers while the user
performs other tasks.
