I don't know how Borland's importing features work, but I do know that Visual C++ creates wrapper code which transforms:
HRESULT Method([in] long v, [out, retval] double* pResult) into
double Method(long v) throw(_com_error) . In other words, it creates code which looks kind of like this:
double WrappingMethod(long v) {
double result;
HRESULT hr = Method(v, &result);
if(FAILED(hr)) throw _com_error(hr);
return result;
}Perhaps the Borland code generates the same kind of code?
In Visual C++, you can tell the compiler not to generate this wrapper code, so that you'll get pure untampered interface definitions. Are there any such options for Borland?

Hello,
I have an unmananged COM object that at one time would send error messages to a text file that was created by using
ofstream outfile;
outfile.open("C:\\WhatHapped.txt");
but, I don't know why it stopped working.
The COM object is used in our asp.net program that is using c# code to grab the com functions.
Could there be something in web.config that isn't allowing the file being created in the COM object?
Thank you,
Bill

I need to invoke a script function programmatically through c++. I have the relevant html doc and there will be several script tags. I have the collection of tags and loop through them to find the script function. However, when I get to the script element that I know contains the function, the GetIDsOfNames method always returns "Unknown name."
CODE SAMPLE
CComBSTR bstrMember("SCRIPT");
pDoc3->getElementsByTagName(bstrMember, &pEltColl);
long len;
pEltColl->get_length(&len);
for(int i = 0; i < len; i++ )
{
CComPtr<idispatch> pEltDisp = NULL;
hr = pEltColl->item( CComVariant(i), CComVariant(i), &pEltDisp);
if(SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
IHTMLScriptElement* pElem = NULL;
hr = pEltDisp->QueryInterface( IID_IHTMLScriptElement, (void**)&pElem );
IDispatchPtr spDisp( pElem );
if(SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
OLECHAR FAR* bstrMember = L"MyFunction";
DISPID dispid = NULL;
**************Things go wrong here****************************
hr = spDisp->GetIDsOfNames(IID_NULL,&bstrMember,1,
LOCALE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT,&dispid);
if(SUCCEEDED(hr) && dispid )
{
DISPPARAMS dispparams;
memset(&dispparams, 0, sizeof dispparams);
EXCEPINFO excepInfo;
memset(&excepInfo, 0, sizeof excepInfo);
CComVariant vaResult;
UINT nArgErr = (UINT)-1;
//Call JavaScript function
hr = pEltDisp->Invoke(dispid,IID_NULL,0,
DISPATCH_METHOD,&dispparams, &vaResult,&excepInfo,&nArgErr);
}
}
}
}
Suggestions would be welcome

I tried using the type library for Microsoft Mappoint to generate classes I need to use the activex control on my dialog, but couldn't seem to see any way to make that work. Now I've tried generating classes from the .ocx file, and that seems to give me all the classes I need for what I'm trying to do. However, I have no idea how to actually display the control on my dialog. There's a CMappointCtrl class that was generated, and all I see in the member functions is CreateDispatch(), not a Create() since it's not derived from CWnd. Also, there's a bunch of other classes that came from the .ocx that I would like to use (like CRoute,CMap). How can I use these with the control? Any help is appreciated. thanks

Hello All,
I have a question which I hope my esteemed peers here will be able to provide some comments :
1. After some time of researching, I found that a COM Object in a COM EXE Server cannot decide on its own Apartment Model (Apartment, Multithreaded, etc).
2. This is so despite indicating the model you want when creating an ATL COM object inside an EXE Server using the ATL Wizard.
3. The way to indicate the Apartment Model for your COM Object is to place your call to CoRegisterClassObject() on your COM Object Class Factory in a thread that has been initialized with CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_MULTITHREADED) or CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED).
Any comments on this from anyone ?
Many Thanks, All,
Bio.

Hi Bio
Inspecting the CAtlExeModuleT class (from the ATL classes shipping with VC.net 2003), I notice the InitializeCom method, quoted below;
<snip>
static HRESULT InitializeCom() throw()
{
#if ((_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0400 ) || defined(_WIN32_DCOM)) & defined(_ATL_FREE_THREADED)
return CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_MULTITHREADED);
#else
return CoInitialize(NULL);
#endif
}
<snip>
which would lead me to believe that by setting _WIN32_WINNT, _WIN32_DCOM, and/or _ATL_FREE_THREADED to the desired values, you would be able to have the server enter the apartment of your choice.

Hello Martin,
Thanks very much for your advise, Martin. I was also observing the difference between a COM DLL Server and a COM EXE Server in terms of specifying the Apartment Model of objects.
DLL server objects indicate their individual Apartment Model in the registry. The ATL Wizard arranges for this. One advantage of using a DLL-based server is that you can specify two objects of different Apartment Models in the same server.
For Exe Server objects, I'm now wondering if it would be possible to specify two object classes with different Apartment Models. I think it may not be possible to do this using ATL. You would have to manually create threads to register the class factories. I'll do some experiments to confirm this.
Thanks again, Martin,
Bio.

i Don't know if this the right thread to post.. but...
our company is planning to buy a third party ActiveX/COM component.
But we need to use it in Java Code... I was wondering if I could call the COM component using J#?

I am wanting to use COM controls in my management scripts written in VBS. Which controls are available to me and how can I use them.
Thanks in advance.

I am porting an app from VB to C++, it uses Crystal Reports and in the VB app an event is handled using the "Handles" operator, I now need to handle that event in C++.
I am #import'ing the CRAXDDRT20.dll and using the IApplicationPtr and IReportPtr objects to initialise and start a report export, the event fired is called "BeforeFormatPage" in VB, how would I go about handling it in C++? (This is the first time I have used COM in C++ BTW)
|
|
|
|
|
|
I have read that and played around with the example but I just don't get it.
I have found this code in the .tlh file for my object:
#pragma implementation_key(2)
inline HRESULT CRAXDDRT20::IReportEvent::BeforeFormatPage ( long PageNumber ) {
return _com_dispatch_method(this, 0x2, DISPATCH_METHOD, VT_EMPTY, NULL,
L"\x0003", PageNumber);
}
Does that give any clues as to what direction I should be heading in.
Sorry if this sounds really dumb, I feel really dumb, I can normally understand and make most things work but COM is really baffling me 
Cheers,
Dan.

Why are you reading .tlh file sir!,that the compiler generate for you when you import COM dll in your project.
i think you Event returning LONG as parameter

It was the .tli file, not .tlh, that was a typo but it was the only file I could find a reference to the event I was interested in and so thought it might provide a clue as to how to capture the event.
As for importing a COM dll into my project, I have never done that, would that possibly be a step towards capturing this event?
I am not using MFC or classes BTW, just plain C.

I am always getting a return value of E_INVALIDARG when the function AddNamedCommand is called:
CComPtr<envdte::command> pCreatedCommand;
hr = pCommands->AddNamedCommand(m_pAddInInstance, CComBSTR(commandname), CComBSTR(commandtext), CComBSTR(tb_name), VARIANT_FALSE, IDB_LOGO, NULL, EnvDTE::vsCommandStatusSupported+EnvDTE::vsCommandStatusEnabled, &pCreatedCommand);
IDB_LOGO is a 16x16 Bitmap.
I am using Visual Studio .NET 2003 on Win XP SP2. I have looked at the documentation and at other examples but I can't find where I am going wrong. I have exactly the same code as everybody else, but theirs works fine.
Any ideas?
I am the handsome one in the crowd.

Hello,
I want to implement an ActiveX Control (made in VB6) in VB 6 application.
It is working fine on my system, but if i am going to implement it on different computer it giving error like "The connection cannot be used to perform this operation. It is either closed or invalid in its context."

Hi,
I'm pretty new to all this interop stuff, and I've come up against a bit of an obstacle. In my method I'm trying to return an instance of another class from C# assembly. Great! Except it doesn't work. I keep getting Error 5 "Object variable or with block not set" in my VB client. Here's some sample code I knocked together to demonstrate...

The StringReturn function is just in there to make sure I can return something. Which I can!

End Sub<br />
Now having extensively googled (and I do mean extensively!) I've come to the conclusion that all I'm missing is some kind of attribute decoration, probably on the methods in the class. Infact I've been tinkering with the MarshalAs attribute with the UnmanagedType.IDispatch, UnmanagedType.Interface and UnmanagedType.IUnknown parameters. (With the return: override of course.) These don't seem to have much of an effect.
Has anyone done this kind of thing before? If you have, how did you do it? And if not, any pointers? Please?!?
Cheers, Steve

Hi!
I'm trying to use WIA Automation component to use a web cam (a standard Logitech USB) in a .Net app.
The API makes it very straightforward to grab one picture from the camera or to get a video preview (OCX) automatically embedded in a window. Neat.
Now my problem is that I actually want to get a video stream -- that is images, possibly between 1 and 10 frames per second. The "TakePicture" command is the only command support by the device, it cannot work at the same time than the VideoPreview and anyway taking one snapshot takes between 3 and 10 seconds (it seems to reinitialize the camera each time!)
So... how am I supposed to use this API to do anything useful with a video device besides automatic preview?

Hi All!
I am new in C++ but I am mad to listen voice of Telephone line via a Sound Card in my PC...
How can I write soft to forward voice (normal voice of telephone user)from the modem to the PCI Sound Card??? And then my microphone sound from Sound Card into the modem connected to the phone line...
Any idea? for Visual C++6 or Borland C++...
I do love comments a lot...in code...
Thanks
