Programmatic Identifier: Push.CDFGenerator.1
The Push.CDFGenHelper COM class, hereafter referred to as the CDFGenHelper class, defines an Automation object that is used in an Active Server Pages (ASP) environment to generate and return personalized channel content for users. This class is designed to serve personalized Channel Definition Format (CDF) strings using a resident copy of a Push.Project object. Normally, an instance of the class is created in the Application_OnStart subroutine located in an ASP application's Global.asa file. It is then normally added to the Application Dictionary object and hence made available to executing ASP scripts that fall within the ASP application scope.
