An interface representing a channel which will have to execute some sort of program provided via its URI to compute the data it should return. If a channel implements this interface, the execution of the program in question will be restricted in the following ways: - If the channel does not have an owner principal, the program will not be executed at all, no matter what. This is necessary because in this circumstance we have no way to tell whether script execution is allowed at all for the originating security context of this channel. - If the channel has an owner principal, how it is executed is controlled by this interface. However if the owner principal does not subsume the principal of the environment in which the program is to be executed the execution will be forced to happen in a sandbox.

Constants
Execute in a sandbox, no matter how the various principals involved are related to each other.
Attributes
Control whether the program should be executed synchronosly when the channel's AsyncOpen method is called or whether it should be executed asynchronously. In both cases, any data that the channel returns will be returned asynchronously; the only thing this property affects is when the program executes. The default value of this property is TRUE. Setting this property after asyncOpen has been called on the channel has no effect.
