The DLL's which get attached to IIS are called ISAPI dlls, and they are used
to do some custom filtering of incoming requests for security purposes, or by 3rd
party products which attach to
IIS to support functionality not native to IIS (like IBM Websphere).
DLL's (NON ISAPI) are callable from ASP pages, or JSP/Servlets (through Java
Native Interface wrappers) they are single instance processes native to windows with
similar functionality to
("lib*.so) shared objects in UNIX. They are often written in C or C++, but can be
written in VB etc..(C# ???). They export publically accessible methods (functions) and
data.
To create a DLL use a Microsoft Development product like Visual Studio C++, or
VB, or .NET. Do a search in the Help for "win32 DLL or COM"

Subject: DLL and Java
Hello!
I have installed IIS on Windows 2000 and in IIS documentation there si
written I can add DDL to the Web Server when I write ASP pages for examples.
I have some doubts about DLL:
1) What it is a DLL?
2)Given I read I can use it in the ASP pages I suppose it is a programming
library, is it so? If yes, in which programming language can I write it? Can
I use Java?
3)Can I use DLL in JSP??
4)How can I create a DLL?
Can someone give me some useful links about DLL please?
Thank you very much in advance!
Luca
