Automation Objects
The Host Access Class Library Automation Objects allow Personal Communications to
support the Microsoft® COM-based automation
technology (formerly known as OLE automation). The HACL Automation
Objects are a series of automation servers that allow automation controllers,
for example, Microsoft® Visual Basic®, to programmatically access Personal Communications’ data and functionality. In other words, applications that are
enabled for controlling the automation protocol (automation controller)
can control some of Personal Communications' operations (automation server).
Note:
The Automation Objects provided by IBM Personal Communications are
32-bit in nature. These can be used only with 32-bit Microsoft Office
programs.
See Host Access Class Library Automation Objects for details on the Automation Objects layer.
