eValid -- eValid Programmatic Interface (EPI) -- Example Program #01
eValid Home

Example Program #01
This is a very simple EPI program that illustrates the basic operation of the interface. The program navigates to an initial URL, waits for 10 seconds, and then navigates to a second URL, and then exits. 


#include "stdafx.h"
#include "epi.h"

int main()
{
  ::CoInitialize( NULL );
  {
    CComPtr< IEvalid > pEvalid;
    if( SUCCEEDED( CoCreateInstance( CLSID_Evalid, NULL,
      CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, IID_IEvalid, ( void** )&pEvalid ) ) )
      {
        CComBSTR bstr_Url( _T( "http://www.google.com" ) );
        pEvalid->InitLink( bstr_Url );
        pEvalid->Wait( 5000 );
        pEvalid->GotoLink( 0, CComBSTR( _T( "http://www.amazon.com" ) ), 
          CComBSTR( _T( "" ) ) );
        pEvalid->Wait( 5000 );
        pEvalid->ExitNow();
      }
  }
  ::CoUninitialize();
  return 0;
}
