Clireg32.exe Remote Automation Utility

  • Article

The Clireg32.exe component makes it possible for you to register a COM server (.exe) remotely. Unlike the Remote Automation Connection Manager (RacMan) in earlier versions of Visual FoxPro, the COM server does not need to be on the machine registering it.

The Clireg32.exe utility is located in your Visual FoxPro Tools\Clireg32\ directory.

The Clireg32.exe program takes a number of parameters. The only required one is the name of the .vbr file (generated with the COM server during build):

Clireg32 cServerName.vbr

In order to fully register a remote server, you must provide the network name, network protocol, and security access. Clireg32 prompts you with a dialog box if these options are not passed. For a list of all the parameters, execute Clireg32.exe without any parameters.

To register a remote COM server using Clireg32

  1. Copy Clireg32.exe and the .vbr and .tlb files generated from the build to your target machine.

  2. Run the Clireg32 utility passing the name of the .vbr file:

    Clireg32 myexesvr.vbr

  3. Enter the network name, network protocol and security access when prompted by the dialog.
