Delphi Application from CFM

[ketankshah]

How can I run a Delphi application from CFM ?

Yes. Make a COM object of it, then you register it on your server. Connect to it and instantiate it by the following lines of code:

<CFTRY>
<CFOBJECT
ACTION=&quot;CONNECT&quot;
CLASS=&quot;YourClassName&quot;
NAME=&quot;objMyObject&quot;
TYPE=&quot;COM&quot;>
<CFCATCH>
<CFOBJECT
ACTION=&quot;CREATE&quot;
CLASS=&quot;YourClassName&quot;
NAME=&quot;objMyObject&quot;
TYPE=&quot;COM&quot;>
</CFCATCH>
</CFTRY>

Good luck, let me know if it worked!

In CF 4.5, you can also use the <cfexecute> tag to run any executable on the server. There's a custom tag in the Allaire tag gallery that does about the same thing if you're running an earlier version of CF.
