Summary
The Arcana Scheduler API is an ActiveX (COM) component. The API can be used in .NET by generating a .NET wrapper (interop assembly) for the Arcana Scheduler type library.
More Information
Visual Studio .NET will generate the wrapper automatically when you reference the Arcana Scheduler component from your project. To do so:
- Select your project in the Visual Studio .NET Solution Explorer.
- From the Project menu, select Add Reference...
- In the Add Reference window, click the COM tab.
- Locate and select "Arcana Scheduler 2.3" in the component list.
- Click Select, then OK.
- You will now see a reference to an assembly named "ADScheduler".
When using API components, you must qualify names with the "ADScheduler" assembly name. For example, you would refer to the ADSSession class as "ADScheduler.ADSSession".
Alternatively, you can add an "imports ADScheduler" statement to your source file or AssemblyInfo so that you do not have to qualify the names.
See the Visual Studio .NET documentation for more information on COM interop and information on distributing the interop assembly with your application.
