FalconView COM

   FalconView™ COM Overview

• COM (Component Object Model) is a Microsoft specification which describes how to build components that can be dynamically shared.
• COM components consist of executable code distributed as DLLs or EXEs
• COM is language independent (C, C++, Visual Basic, JAVA, ADA…) But Microsoft tools such as VB Visual C++ or C# make it much easier.

With FalconView, you can use the interfaces either from a EXE running out of process or by creating a DLL running InProcess with FalconView. This first example is an EXE implementation.
