activex xap object?

["rleong1" <rleong1@xxxxxxxxx>]

i use a home automation package that doesn't support xap but has the
ability to use activex objects through scripting.  is there an activex
object for xap?  something that i could instantiate in a script and
make the software i use appear to be xap enabled?  (ie it could
receive messages directed to it, etc)  is this even possible?

one thing i like about xplhal is its global variables to store
previous state, on which i can do scripting, etc.  is there something
similar in xap to xplhal's global variables?  another feature i like
is the ability to display those globals in my own asp page.  would
this be possible w/ xap?

i bring a lot xap stuff across to xpl so i'm looking for a way to use
xap directly instead.
