Sample-automation-controller library

This project contains an example program that is a demonstration of a simple OLE Automation controller in Dylan, using the utility functions of the Dylan OLE-Automation library rather than the low-level Windows OLE API. The program issues commands to the companion program in the project sample-automation-server.

The OLE-Automation library is documented in the Functional Developer "OLE, COM, ActiveX and DBMS" reference manual.

Before running this program, first either start or register the server program (see its README file). Then when the controller is run, it connects to the server and displays a set of buttons. Clicking on one of the buttons causes the indicated action to be performed by the server. The "Quit" button terminates both programs.
