Today I added an example on how to implement a dual interface to the COM
page http://www.adapower.com/com

Dual interfaces allow scripting languages to call your interfaces using late
binding through the IDispatch interface. It is Microsoft's recomendation
that all interfaces be dual unless they are intended never to be used by any
scripting language. (ex. JScript, VBScript, etc).

In fact, how would you like to run some Ada Code from your browser?

Set your Internet Explorer Security Setting to Low (The ActiveX objects is
not signed) and then go to http://www.adapower.com/com/beep.html and give it
a try! (about 60k for the object download)
