Thanks,

Using

[ ... ]
library MyLibrary
{
        module MyConstants
        {
                const BSTR MY_CONSTANT = "Const Value";
        }

        // ...
}

I get an additional Java interface generated by JActiveX:

public interface MyConstants
{
        public static final String MY_CONSTANT = "Const Value";
}

It would be preferable if these constants were in the interface to which
they applied but this is workable.

Andrew
