Using Citrix Application Hosted Controls
CCF allows interaction with Citrix applications through a Citrix Application Hosted Control. CCF 2009 SP1 supports hosting Citrix applications on Citrix XenServer 5 and Citrix Presentation Server 4.5. Hosting Citrix-published applications requires the installation of one server-side component per Citrix server, and one client-side component per hosted application. On the server side, an executable file is configured as a startup program that launches alongside each Citrix-published application when it launches. It quickly self-terminates as soon as it discovers that the application has not been started from the CCF Citrix client-side component. The client-side component is implemented as a CCF Hosted Control named CitrixApplicationHostedControl. You can use CitrixApplicationHostedControl without modifying it or you can extend it to suit your environment. An action fired at the CitrixApplicationHostedControl is transmitted to the server-side component, which dispatches it to any configured application adapters.
