- FMSLib contains six inter-related VB6 libraries and one test executable
- FMSWeb contains thirty-four ASP pages, which reference the six VB6 libraries in FMSLib.
The source codes for the FMSLib VB6 projects are located in the [INSTALLDIR]\samples\source\FMStocks\FMSLib subdirectory. The source code for the ASP pages is located in the [INSTALLDIR]\samples\source\FMStocks\FMSWeb\asp subdirectory. Four sample Migration Projects are included in the FMStocks example, depending on target language (C# or VB.NET) and treatment of referenced components (Interoped or migrated to .NET), as shown below:
| Project[.gmproj] | Description |
| DemoFMSLib_csh | All inter-related VB6 DLLs migrated to C#.NET, all externals interoped |
| DemoFMSWeb_csh | ASP Site and FMSLib libraries migrated to C#.NET, all other externals interoped |
| DemoFMSLib_vbn | All inter-related VB6 DLLs migrated to VB.NET, all externals interoped |
| DemoFMSWeb_vbn | ASP Site and FMSLib libraries migrated to VB.NET, all other externals interoped |
The FMStocks sample shows how to migrate inter-related ASP and VB6/COM components. The application was published to demonstrate a 3-tier architecture (ASP, COM+, and SQL Server) in the context of a stock trading site with the following features:
...
Note: The version of FMStocks distributed as a sample here uses COM instead of COM+.
Deployment
The FMStocks migrations are derived from the FMStocks source and are deployed in the FMStocks_csh or FMStocks_vbn workspace. Two types of migrations are made: one for the VB6 projects and one for the web site. The resulting .NET codes are expressed in both VB.NET (vbn) and C# (csh). source codes for the FMSLib VB6 projects are located in the [INSTALLDIR]\samples\source\FMStocks\FMSLib subdirectory. The source code for the ASP pages is located in the [INSTALLDIR]\samples\source\FMStocks\FMSWeb\asp subdirectory. Four sample Migration Projects are included in the FMStocks example, depending on target language (C# or VB.NET) and treatment of referenced components (Interoped or migrated to .NET), as shown below:

| DemoFMSLib_vbn | All inter-related VB6 DLLs migrated to VB.NET, all externals interoped |
| DemoFMSWeb_vbn | ASP Site and FMSLib libraries migrated to VB.NET, all other externals interoped |
The FMStocks projects have the following deployment settings:
The VB6 Projects (COM libraries):
ProjectFolder = [INSTALLDIR]\samples\workspace\FMStocks_[lang]
DeployFolder = %ProjFolder%\deploy\lib
The ASP Projects (web site):
ProjectFolder = [INSTALLDIR]\samples\workspace\FMStocks_[lang]
DeployFolder = %ProjFolder%\deploy\web
