Recently, a strange file came up during one of my regular DISMs, adcjavas.inc.

The only place I can seem to find it is in my C:\Windows\WinSxS\ directory, but that doesn't really give me too many clues as to what this file is or what it does.

What is this file, and should I be worrying that it's corrupt?

What is adcjavas.inc?

This file contains ADO constants that are used for client side scripting with Microsoft JScript.

Microsoft JScript does not support type libraries, so you do not need to reference ADO in your project. Consequently, no associated features such as command line completion are supported. Also, by default, ADO enumerated constants are not defined in JScript.

However, ADO provides you with two include files containing the following definitions to be used with JScript:

  • For server-side scripting use Adojavas.inc, which is installed in the c:\Program Files\Common Files\System\ado\ folder by default.

  • For client-side scripting use Adcjavas.inc, which is installed in the c:\Program Files\Common Files\System\msdac\ folder by default.
