HI again,

yeah I see your point(s).

I (we) have done a complete re-write of the code (see www.ukreg.com) and it would have made it VERY easy to use an ASP component as the API instead of Perl. Also an ASP COm object could be imported into Delphi...... much better. It would have also been much easier if the API was fully documented, especially if it was all in one document (not a dig there, just a suggestion).

The only problem I am having is getting the PP_Blowfish Perl mod installed on NT. Not because it's NT, but because I am NOT a Perl programmer by nature, and am not wise to the pitfalls. PPM (PMM?) offers no help either. {:-(( (any simple style adive on doing this would be great.

  Several people are considering such a component. I've spoken with Paul Rony offline about doing something like that, and several others have posted messages indicating that they were considering it or working on it.
   
  It has been a fairly low priority for me, though, because the existing code works so well on NT as is. The changes that must be made are minimal, and there is almost nothing that doesn't work on NT (the only exception is that your choice of encryption methods of limited somewhat).
   
  Additionally, the OpenSRS code has new features added sufficiently often that it would be a hassle to keep the two in sync...gee, I've almost talked myself out of doing it. ;^)

    Hi All,

    I was woundering if the OpenSRS team, or anyone else for that matter, are thingking of, or are already, developing an ASP component for OpenSRS.

    I am thinking that this will be a no as Windows is not yet officially supported, but you can get ASP on UNIX etc these days.....

    thoughts.. ideas...??
