Registry Entries for Servers

The following tables show a summary of the keys and values that are added in the system registry of the server when a new class is registered.

The column "parent key" shows under which key the new key is created. The key which is added is listed in the column "subkey", and the columns "value name" and "value" show the value of the new entry.

Note:
<class_name> and <class_ID> are the name and the class GUID of the class respectively. They are defined in the DEFINE CLASS statement of the class module.

The following topics are covered below:
