Reading values from the Registry

Note: This documentation is for an old version of Webinator. The latest documentaion is here.

Reading values from the Registry

Texis ISAPI will attempt to read the following values from the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Thunderstone Software\ISAPI:

port (DWORD): the port that Texis ISAPI should use to connect to the remote monitor web server.

host (String): the hostname of the webinator machine that Texis ISAPI should use. If no hostname is found, localhost is assumed.

If Texis ISAPI is unable to read a port value from the registry, then it will disable itself and makes an Event Log entry detailing why it couldn't read from texis.cnf and why it couldn't read from the registry.
