The RenderingApplication object provides a framework for a rendering application. You can set options on the RenderingApplication object that are inherited by all rendering objects created by the CreateRenderer method. The interface instantiated by the RenderingApplication object also provides for event logging and performance monitoring.
A RenderingApplication object is considered a top-level object, meaning it can be created directly from a Microsoft® Visual Basic® program. In the CDO Rendering Library it has a ProgID of AMHTML.Application. This code fragment creates a RenderingApplication object through early binding:
Dim objRendApp As RenderingApplication
Set objRendApp = CreateObject ("AMHTML.Application")
This code fragment creates a RenderingApplication object through late binding:
Dim objRendApp As Object
Set objRendApp = CreateObject ("AMHTML.Application")
Generally, early binding is preferable, because it enforces type checking and generates more efficient code. Note that you specify the full ProgID "AMHTML.Application" instead of just "Application" in order to distinguish a CDO Rendering application from other types of applications available to a Visual Basic program through other object libraries.
