Website Installation
Integrate VectorDraw 5.0.0.1033 Component in a Web Page
1. Downloading and running a setup.exe file (similar to ours) that installs
Professional/Standard/Viewer ActiveX in the "client's" system.
2. Making a CAB file. If you want more information about this see MSDN article
"Deploying ActiveX Controls on the Web with the Internet Component Download".
(NOTE: It is better not to use UNICODE versions because it can only work only
with Windows2000 and XP.)
Instructions for making a CAB
Make a temporary Folder and place there the:
- vdpro.ocx(or vdstd.ocx, or vdview.ocx) file
- vdimg.dll
- opengl32.dll (ONLY if you are using Professional or Viewer)
- glu32.dll (ONLY if you are using Professional or Viewer)
- MAKECAB.EXE utility (can be found on MSDN and Microsoft's WebSite)
- lpk_tool.exe (can be found on MSDN and Microsoft's WebSite)
NOTE : This example is for vdpro. Don't forget to change vdpro with vdstd or
vdview if you are using Standard or Viewer
Also change the clsid of the product . These are the three keys for clsid:
- 85CAEBA4-F545-48C6-90BC-AEA124686727 for vdview.ocx
- 39F31100-C75B-4DF6-9347-7BEF76314730 for vdstd.ocx
- D4739FDD-DC16-4AB8-BB0A-469661CCAE31 for vdpro.ocx

Run the MakeCab.bat. This should produce the vdrawi4.cab file.
Upload this cab file in your server's location : http://www.mysite.com/draw
See the HTML code:
<OBJECT id="vdpro" height="445" width="692"
classid="clsid:D4739FDD-DC16-4AB8-BB0A-469661CCAE31" codebase="http://www.mysite.com/draw/vdrawi4.cab#version=5,0,0,1033" VIEWASTEXT>
Run the lpk_tool.exe application, choose in the left column the "VectorDRaw
Professional 5.x", Press Add , (in the right column should be only that, and
then press "Save & exit" and give the name (in the temporary directory)
"vdprolpk.lpk". This should produce the vdprolpk.lpk file.
See the code in the HTML :
<OBJECT classid="clsid:5220cb21-c88d-11cf-b347-00aa00a28331" VIEWASTEXT>
<PARAM NAME="LPKPath" VALUE="vdprolpk.lpk">
</OBJECT>
!!!!!The
vdprolpk.lpk file must be in the same folder in your server as the htm
files.
Upload in the http://www.mysite.com/draw directory of your webserver the
test.htm, vdprolpk.lpk, vdrawi4.cab files and the a sample drawing saved as
test.vdi.
You also need to update the licval value for your server. Please contact our
sales department about that.
Open the page http://www.mysite.com/draw/test.htm in your IE.
DWG/DXF file support.
In order to support the formats DWG/DXF within your web page you have two
options:
1. VectorDraw File Converter Application must be installed in your client's
machine. It is free and you can download it from our site.
2. Obtain the necessary rights for using OpenDesign™ Library from
OpenDesign™
().
In this case the vdxfiles.dll (for DWG/DXF support), vdfopen.ocx
(for DGN only), vddgn.ocx (for DGN only) must be distributed and OLE registered in your
client's machine.
Also the DD_Root.dll must be placed in the same folder with the vdpro.ocx .This
dll it is available from OpenDesign's DwgDirectX™ toolkit.
Also you have to modify the .ddf and .inf files as followed:
| File Name |
|
Add this text with Notepad |
| vdrawnet.ddf |
|
.OPTION EXPLICIT

.Set Compress=on
