See Collaboration Data Objects for NTS Components.
Collaboration Data Objects (CDO)
A technology for building messaging or collaboration applications. It is designed to simplify the creation of applications with messaging functionality, or to add messaging functionality to existing applications. For more information, see "Messaging and Collaboration Services" in the Microsoft® Platform SDK.
Collaboration Data Objects for NTS Components (CDONTS)
A CDO component that is intended to run on a Windows NT® Server computer — for example, from an Active Server Pages script on a Microsoft Internet Information Server computer. It is not intended to run on a client process. No user dialog is invoked or supported by CDONTS. For more information, see "CDO 1.2.1" under "Messaging and Collaboration Services" in the Platform SDK.
COM
See Component Object Model.
Component Object Model (COM)
An architecture for defining interfaces and interaction among objects implemented by widely varying software applications. A COM object instantiates one or more interfaces, each of which exposes zero or more properties and zero or more methods. All COM interfaces are derived from the base class IUnknown. Technologies built on the COM foundation include ActiveX® and OLE.
Configure URL
The location of a file accessed by HTTP that queries users for configuration information before an application is deployed in a Team Workspace. After the Configure URL gathers the information, the TPU calls the Deploy URL. For more information about deploying applications in a Team Workspace, see The Instantiation URL.
