SUMMARY
=======

The 4thScrpt.exe sample demonstrates how to implement Active Debugging in an
ActiveX Script Engine built with Active Template Library (ATL). The sample is
designed to supplement the Active Debugging documentation available on the
Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN).

This sample demonstrates how to add Active Debugging support to an ActiveX Script
Engine. Active Debugging builds on Active Scripting and enables debugger host
applications, such as Microsoft Script Debugger, to provide comprehensive,
language-independent testing, and error correcting capabilities. Functionality,
such as breakpoints, expression evaluation, and data monitoring, are all
possible through the Active Debugging interfaces. Active Debugging also makes it
possible to debug multiple scripts in different languages concurrently, making
cross-language issues easier to locate and correct.

To Compile the 4thScrpt.exe File
--------------------------------

1. In Visual C++, add a new include directory by clicking Options in the Tools
  menu. Select the Directories tab, and show directories for Include files.
  Click in the Directories window, and then add a path to the Scripting folder
  of this sample. Drag this path to the top of the list so that it is checked
  first.

2. On the Directories tab, show directories for Library files. Click in the
  Directories window and add a path to the Scripting folder of this sample.
  Drag this path to the top of the list so that it is checked first. This
  folder contains headers and libraries needed to compile Active Scripting and
  Active Debugging projects.

3. On the Project menu, click Settings and then click the Link tab. In the
  Object/Library modules, make sure that the Ad1.lib file is referenced. This
  file contains GUIDs necessary for Active Debugging.

4. Build the project. You need to modify the Objsafe.h file in the Visual C++
  Include directory if you get the following error messages:

  error C2065: 'INTERFACE_USES_DISPEX' : undeclared identifier

  error C2065: 'INTERFACE_USES_SECURITY_MANAGER' : undeclared identifier

  Find the definitions for the Option bits for IObjectSafety, and add
  definitions for INTERFACE_USES_DISPEX and INTERFACE_USES_SECURITY_MANAGER, as
  shown below. These bits are required by Internet Explorer.

     // Option bit definitions for IObjectSafety:
     #define	INTERFACESAFE_FOR_UNTRUSTED_CALLER	0x00000001
        // Caller of interface may be untrusted
     #define	INTERFACESAFE_FOR_UNTRUSTED_DATA	0x00000002
        // Data may be untrusted
     #define	INTERFACE_USES_DISPEX	            0x00000004
        // Object knows to use IDispatchEx
     #define	INTERFACE_USES_SECURITY_MANAGER	    0x00000008
        // Object knows to use IInternetHostSecurityManager

Once the project has compiled, the engine registers itself. Please see the
ForthScript.txt file for more information about this sample.
