\title Qt's ActiveX Framework (ActiveQt)
\brief An overview of Qt's ActiveX and COM integration on Windows.
\ingroup qt-activex
\keyword ActiveQt
\target ActiveQt Framework
Qt's ActiveX and COM support allows Qt for Windows developers to:
\list 1
\o Access and use ActiveX controls and COM objects provided by any
ActiveX server in their Qt applications.
\o Make their Qt applications available as COM servers, with
any number of Qt objects and widgets as COM objects and ActiveX
controls.
\endlist
For more information about using ActiveX with Qt, see
\l{Building ActiveX servers in Qt}.
The ActiveQt framework consists of two modules:
\list
\o The \l{Using ActiveX controls and COM in Qt}{QAxContainer}
module is a static library implementing QObject and QWidget subclasses,
QAxObject and QAxWidget, that act as containers for COM objects and
ActiveX controls.
\o The \l{Building ActiveX servers in Qt}{QAxServer}
module is a static library that implements
functionality for in-process and executable COM servers. This
module provides the QAxAggregated, QAxBindable and QAxFactory
classes.
\endlist
A set of \l{Tools for ActiveQt}{tools} is provided to simplify the
developing and building of Qt projects that use ActiveX.
To build the static libraries, change into the \c activeqt directory
(usually \c QTDIR/src/activeqt), and run \c qmake and your make
tool in both the \c container and the \c control subdirectory.
The libraries \c qaxcontainer.lib and \c qaxserver.lib will be linked
into \c QTDIR/lib.
If you are using a shared configuration of Qt enter the \c plugin
subdirectory and run \c qmake and your make tool to build a
plugin that integrates the QAxContainer module into \l{Qt
Designer}.
The ActiveQt modules are part of the \l{Qt Commercial Edition} and
the \l{Open Source Versions of Qt}.
