Window| program since the introduction of ASP technology Micorsoft, as the ASP in the creation of dynamic interactive site and the powerful function of the simplicity of code writing, so that the ASP in more and more Internet/intranet/extranet Web site has been extremely extensive application , especially the website application system which involves the database operation is inclined to adopt ASP technology. However, for well-known reasons, ASP can only work on Microsoft Windows NT platform +iis WEB server server software, but also in WINDOWS9X+PWS, but that can only be debugging or learning, and thus determine the limitations of ASP application. According to relevant information, the use of Windows operating system platform and server software sites around 15%, that is, nearly 85% of the site will not be using ASP technology. Most commercial websites use operating systems such as UNIX, Linux, Soris and NetWare, and the corresponding servers, which means that the ASP technology does have great limitations on its application.
Can't an ASP be used on a non-Windows platform? Of course not. So far we have at least two options, Chilisoft4 Company's Chili ASP and Halcycon company iasp (instantasp). Halcyonsoft company put forward "ASP Anytime,anywhere" slogan, developed iasp, so that ASP can not only use the Windows operating system platform and server software on the Web site, but also in the adoption of other operating systems such as UNIX, Linux, Soris, NetWare operating system and the corresponding server's Web site. Iasp fully inherits the advantages of ASP, and fully compatible with ASP, so the ASP application system can be directly ported to the non-Windows operating system platform under the IASP environment, so that the ASP application system is truly a cross-platform Internet, Intranet or extranet application system.
Compared with ASP, IASP has advantages not only in supporting operating system platform, but also in building ASP application system with Third-party components. Iasp not only supports popular ActiveX components, but also supports popular enterprise JavaBeans components and CORBA-compliant components, making the ASP application system more powerful and widely used. In addition to the MS Visual series development tools and the Borland Series development tools, you can use Java Series development tools to give component developers more choice to develop components more easily.
Iasp is available in two versions, one for Windows operating system platform and server software, and the other for UNIX, Linux, Soris, NetWare operating systems, and corresponding server software. Currently the latest version of 1.0.9, recently launched a free version of Linux, can be downloaded on the http://www.halcycon.com site, the function of the same as the official version, want to be in the Network special UNIX, Linux Local area network using ASP Network developers may wish to download a trial, the file size of more than 9M.
First, iasp Software environment requirements
The Iasp software is completely written in the Java programming language and requires support from jdk1.1.x or above, which requires a jdk1.1.x or above version on the system. Linux platform jdk11.x can be downloaded in http://xfer.nitric.com/pub/java-linux/, windows9x/nt platform based jdk1.1.x download address for ftp:// 202.103.111.173/download/develop/java/jdk1_1_1-win32-x86.exe.
You also need the appropriate Web server software, such as IIS, Apache, Netscape, Xitami, Sambar, and so on.
Ii. system platform and server software supported by iasp Installer
The Iasp software is written in Java programming language and can be run on all Java platforms in principle. IASP can automatically configure server software to enable it to interpret and transform ASP pages using Iasp, iasp can connect and communicate with the server using the Iasp servlet interface developed by Halcycon software company, or use other servlet interfaces to connect and communicate with the server. IASP supports the following platforms and Web servers:
