Abstract
A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture provide the ability to enable communication between disconnected applications in a computer system. A bridge object is created in a secondary application. Further, an interface for the bridge object enables communication with the secondary application through the bridge object. The interface for the bridge object is registered in a global interface table (GIT). A cookie is retrieved from the GIT in response to the registration. Such a cookie comprises information for utilizing the interface for the bridge object. The cookie is then stored in an environment variable. The environment variable is accessible to a disconnected application (e.g., ActiveX control) such that the cookie may be retrieved to enable use of the interface.
