Remotely Launching Your Program

Suppose that you've written an application that uses the NetMeeting data channel to send information among people in a conference. How do you ensure that your application is running on everyone's computer? This tutorial shows you!

The NetMeeting COM interface enables programmers to quickly and easily design collaborative software that is rich in features. Using the NetMeeting COM interface, developers can create applications that enable users to work together over local or remote networks. To support this, your software may need to ensure that your application is running on another computer, or to cause another computer to launch a copy of your application. This tutorial provides a tour through the hierarchy of the NetMeeting COM interface and demonstrates how to launch copies of your programs on a remote computer. This is accomplished with a call to INmConference::LaunchRemote and several other important methods.
