Highlights

  • Code signing certificate

      • Michael HALLORAN has made the necessary changes and committed them.
      • Michel PONS to build new version of COLTT and test it.
      • COLTT installer doesn’t include type library installer:
        • Could be included, as a safety precaution, in case COLTT is installed first.
  • 64-bit only PMEs
    • Windows DLL Surrogate as a solution?
      • Requires the registry entry App_ID to be set for each component.
      • Suspects that this is not done routinely for CO components, needs to be confirmed.
