Hi,
First of all if you have a Set/Get functions for the property and it's part of any property page it's better to use PROP_ENTRY macro. Even if you don't use the property page you can always set it to CLSID_NULL.
BEGIN_PROP_MAP(...)
PROP_ENTRY("StartColor", DISPID_START_COLOR, CLSID_NULL)
END_PROP_MAP()
The other thing I've noticed is that you use a space in the name of the property. Never use it in the name of the properties, it can cause all kind of problems.

Hi...
While developing ASP Components in VC, is there any restriction to use MFC in it? Should we use MFC or not? If answer is "Yes" then explain it and if answer is "No" then explain it also 
Thanks!

Hi,
There are no any restrictions... but ASP components do not have any GUI, so there is no any reason to use MFC. If you need a good string class use WTL instead.
So my answer is NO. Because you don't need MFC and it will affect the size and performance of the component comparing to ATL & WTL.

HI HI HI
Need to now how to make com object to save an error to file so the client can't see any msgBox but i can view the errors from the file any time i want.
|
|
|
|
|
Hi,
I don't think it's possible to do... If the component shows the dialog on error there is no way ho hide this dialog and to get the error text, except if there are special methods/properties for that. Only if the standard IErrorInfo interface is used than you can change the component container behavior.

Hi,
Is it a third party COM object, or you designed it by yourself? If you don't have the source code just the DLL file I don't see any ways to MAKE the COM object to write the error messages in the file.

Hello,
I want to create an Apartment threaded compoent server which will be used by the main thread client.How do i go about doing this?Any tips will be of help!1
Best Regards,
R Acharya

Hi,
I don't understand what problems do you have... To create an Apartment threaded component just select the Attributes page of the ATL Object Wizard Properties and make sure that Threading Model is set to Apartment. It's a default value, so usually you don't have to change anything.

HI
I was wondering how a Client can see if a COM server that belongs to him exists in the registry. If an server exists I would like to add an item in the Client's menu.
Thank you for your time.

First you need to know either the CLSID or the ProgID of the server. If you know the CLSID then convert the CLSID to a string using StringFromCLSID. Then attempt to open the following registry key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\"Your server's CLSID as a string"
If the key exists then the server has been installed on this machine.
If you have the ProgID, you can use CLSIDFromProgID() to get the CLSID and then proceed as indicated above.
The other option, is to use CoCreateInstance() to see if you can actually create the object and then shut it down. However, that might affect performance of your app unacceptably.

Call CoGetClassObject() and test to see if it fails with the REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG error:
IClassFactory* pCF = NULL;
HRESULT hResult = CoGetClassObject(CLSID_TheObject, NULL,
CLSCTX_WHATEVER_YOU_WANT_TO_USE, (void**)&pCF);
if (FAILED(hResult))
{
if (hResult == REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)
{
// the server's not registered properly...
}
}

Hi,
I'm writing an add-in in Visual C++. I'd like to attach my own docking dialog bar and child window
to Visual C++ so it will look like an intergral part of it. I haven't been able to do that, and even though
MSDN says that you can create modeless dialogs (because they don't have their own message pump),
I HAVE seen an add-in called RadVC which similated a Visual Basic environment in Visual C++ - which
indicates that it IS possible to do what I want.
How can I do it then? Is there a specific COM interface for doing that?
Thanks.
