Description
The fixes for bugs 4900768 and 5029105 (integrated in 1.4.2_05 and 1.5)
only *partially* solve known problems with the ActiveX bridge.  Some
critical problems still remain, stalling/preventing various customers
in their efforts to migrate their Java apps from MSJVM to SunJVM.

See comments for further details.
Comments
EVALUATION The ActiveX bridge is not officially certified/tested with IIS server in 1.4.2 and 1.5, therefore I would consider this as an RFE ###@###.### 2004-05-06 I believe the only open issue is with IIS version 6 but one can configure IIS 6 to run as IIS 5. Since there's a workaround, I'm deferring this CR. ###@###.### 2004-12-01 02:44:54 GMT
