Version
7.5.0.1
SoftAdapter AppMixer SDK is programming tool to
combine your Visual C++/MFC application with MS
Access, MS Excel or .NET Framework applications. It
may be considered as easy alternative to MS Office
Add-in, ActiveX and other COM-based technologies.
AppMixer SDK is intended primarily to apply to the
general (non-COM-based) executable MFC MDI
Document/View application to transform it into sub
application. After simple modification via AppMixer,
such application becomes capable to work within the
frame of MS Access, MS Excel or .NET Framework
applications. As a result of the use of AppMixer, two
standalone applications are mixed in one composite
application with seamless joint. Composite
application appears in the form of either MFC or
mainframe application. Its state depends on which MDI
child window is active.
AppMixer does mainly two things:
1) It provides programmers with base API to create
and manage the sub-application;
2) When formed into sub-application, AppMixer engine
performs at runtime the next tasks:
- It substitutes the frame of main
application (Access, Excel or .NET) for the native
frame of MFC sub-application.
- It controls GUI of composite application.
- It provides main loop of composite
application with MFC-compatibility.
AppMixer implements all functions in automatic mode
without programmer’s assistance.
Thus, by using the AppMixer SDK, you can fast and
easily to lay the power foundation of complex
integrated solutions based on the combined use of MS
Office, .NET and Visual C++/MFC technologies.
