TOleServer.ConnectKind Property

Indicates the type of process to which the ConnectKind component establishes a connection.

Pascal

property ConnectKind: TConnectKind;

C++

__property TConnectKind ConnectKind;

Description

Set ConnectKind to indicate how the ConnectKind component establishes a connection. ConnectKind establishes the connection when the application is run (if AutoConnect is True true) or when the application calls the Connect (or ConnectTo) method.

The following table lists the possible values:

Value	Meaning
ckRunningOrNew	Attach to a running server or create a new instance of the server.
ckNewInstance	Always create a new instance of the server.
ckRunningInstance	Only attach to a running instance of the server.
ckRemote	Bind to a remote instance of the server. When using this option, you must supply a value for RemoteMachineName.
ckAttachToInterface	Don't bind to the server. Instead, the application supplies an interface using the ConnectTo method, which is introduced in descendant classes. This option can't be used with the AutoConnect property.
