CLASS or CLASSID Property

PLBCMP GUI Only

The ASSEMBLY property defines the associated text name of the CLSID for the OLE insertable object. If set, the current OLE insertable object is replaced by a new OLE insertable object created using the given text name. The property uses the following formats:

CLASS={value}

or

CLASSID={value}

Note the following:

1. CLASS or CLASSID may be used in CREATE, SETPROP, or GETPROP statements of AUTOMATION, CONTAINER, and CONTROL objects.

2. {value} is a character variable or literal defining the programmatic identifier associated with a CLSID.

3. If the {value} is a single question mark (?) character, an OLE Insertable Object Dialog is presented allowing the user to select an OLE object.

4. When running under the PL/B Application Server, a CLASS or CLASSID property beginning with an exclamation mark (!) signifies that the file resides on the client rather than the server.
