#81554 - 2003-03-14 01:17 PM KiX COM Object
mbrecht mbrecht Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-03-14 Posts: 17 Loc: Jockgrim, Germany, EU	Hello boys and girls(?), and sorry for my poor english. In my business environment WSH and VBscript is the standard scripting language. My request is that all "KiX" funktions/macros are integrated in a simpel DLL (un-/registered with regsvr32.exe) to use it with VBscript. Many informations of KiX can ditto use with many other Interfaces ADSI/WMI etc. but KiX is a collection of the real important informations for a simpel use. Bye MB

I think the informations in KiX are encapsulated in funktions and this funktions can access with a alternate Interface. In my environment is the use of VBscript a company standard but is open to enhance the functionality with COM Objekts. I´am not interested on a war of MS WSH and (MS) KiXtart

Using a potential KiXtart COM-interface would just be another wrapper around a wrapper to an interface. It would create an unnecessary layer. _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.

mbrecht mbrecht Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-03-14 Posts: 17 Loc: Jockgrim, Germany, EU	Almost the KiX Objects are available on every OS Version. The KiX functions and macros are a completed collection of functionality thats a admin at login time needed. In a environment with a zoo of Microsoft OS is KiXart the best solution. But, if the company standard framework based on vbscript for all other scripting problems, you can not convince that scripting with KiXtart-Scriptprocessor is the better solution. The idea is now to have a easy to use library with functions/macros witch already exist in the Kixtart sourcecode. Bye MB [ 14. March 2003, 17:49: Message edited by: mbrecht ]

Mart Mart KiX Supporter Registered: 2002-03-27 Posts: 4673 Loc: The Netherlands	It is just a first release so there might be some issues with it. 4.60 in general had some issues. 4.61 Beta 1 is out so it might be a better idea to test with the DLL of 4.61 once it is released and not 4.60. In the current package of 4.61B1 the DLL is not included yet. _________________________ Mart - Chuck Norris once sold ebay to ebay on ebay.

Skatterbrainz Skatterbrainz Starting to like KiXtart Registered: 2002-10-17 Posts: 172 Loc: Virginia, USA	I tested KiXtart.dll on Vista and XP and had some success instantiating an object from VBScript and calling some macros. But I can't seem to get it to work from PowerShell. I'm using the following code... $kix = New-Object -ComObject KiXtart.Application Don't beat me up, please. Just mentioning this in case it helps or means anything to someone besides myself. _________________________ silence is golden, but duct tape is silver

Allen Allen KiX Supporter Registered: 2003-04-19 Posts: 4572 Loc: USA	No beat downs... $\:\)$ Seriously, I would bet you are the first person to try this... as almost no one here likes Powershell. I bought a book and was going to really try to learn it, but absolutely hated the syntax, and then couldn't read my scripts after a day or two. I don't know why it doesn't work... and to be honest, I don't even know what the syntax would be to use it. Maybe someone will have some ideas. _________________________ (... better days ahead)

Skatterbrainz Skatterbrainz Starting to like KiXtart Registered: 2002-10-17 Posts: 172 Loc: Virginia, USA	I was just trying it out for curiosity. It works fine from VBScript, which is fine for my needs. I work with KiXtart more than the others anyway. Just thought it might be worth mentioning in case it helps someone else. _________________________ silence is golden, but duct tape is silver
