asp_components thread: windows script components vs scripting


Message #1 by dont worry <aspmailbox@y...> on Mon, 23 Oct 2000 16:13:59 -0700 (PDT)
I've read that windows scripting components are not

good for production, but is it better than having

scripting in asp pages? 



Thanks

#1. where have you read "that windows scripting components are not good for 

production"....?

#2. scripting is fine in ASP pages



WSC are good for a bit-more OOP approach to solve your problem.  I have yet 

to see them hold up in a large scale development effort.  Currently Iam 

involved in one of these large scale efforts based primarily on WSC and a 

bit of COM/COM+.  So far development is a real pain because of weak 

debugging and error output.  Be cautious with WSC.

I read that they are only good for prototyping in

Beginning components for asp by wrox.  I already have

my code in javascript, should it just port over to

wsc?

Have you load tested with the wsc components you built

yet? How did it go?



Thanks

I agree....IMHO i would avoid using WSC for any real large scale 

development process.  But i was not the point person for this project.



They do provide a good intermediate transition point from straight up ASP 

to the COM/COM+ world.



You mentioned that all of your code is in Javascript...considering 

Javascript is client only.....maybe your referring to JScript...?



The systems engineer's will be load testing the environment soon.  (not 

soon enough for me)....I will post whatever results I can.

Well, I want to take my asp pages and turn them in to

COM objects for performance benefits and to create a

true n-tier app.  My asp pages or in vbscript, I know

that it isn't as easy as copy and pasting into VB to

create the Components althought I wish it was.  I 'm

preparing my self for a large task. 

(I hate having to shut down Component services

evertime I make a small change...ARGH)



1)What and How should I get this done?

Create an object with Visual Basic. Put into transaction

server or in the COM/COM+ folder on Win2000.



Simply call the object from the ASP page...



BTW; You dont have to shut down the component

service every time you are updating the object.

Just shoose shut down on the package in with

the object are, and then delete the Vlavbla.Class1

and drag the new version into the package ;)

the biggest thing you have to consider is if you have a reason to move it



if there is a performance issue, or security, then move it..



for example, you wouldnt want to move some SIMPLE string handling functions 

into COM cus it actually could perform worse.



but your COMPLEX handling routines could be moved if the compiled code will 

enhance the performance.



security issues could mean that you are wishing to compile the KEY used in 

your encryption routine, or other similar things.





so its pretty much your call, if you choose to move it over...just remember 

that sometimes its not the best idea.
