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.

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...
C# COM Server
<br />

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;<br />

return rt;<br />
}<br />
<br />
public COMReturnTest._ReturnType StringNullTest()<br />
{<br />
COMReturnTest.ReturnType rt = new COMReturnTest.ReturnType(null, 100);<br />
return rt;<br />
}<br />
<br />
public COMReturnTest._ReturnType StringSetTest()<br />
{<br />
COMReturnTest.ReturnType rt = new COMReturnTest.ReturnType("bugger", 100);<br />

<br />
public String StringReturn()<br />
{<br />
return "Buggeration!!!";<br />
}<br />

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?

I want to use Band in Box with the rme Digi96/8 PAD but i cant get a virtual MIDI device running.
I tried Roland Virtual Sound Canvas or otherwise the Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth.
Using DxDiag i can test Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth and Tadaa it works over the Digi96 but its not possible to use it in System Audio Settings.
After hours searching the registry to activate SW Synth working with my Digi96, i gave up!!

I think You are looking For TAPI i.e. Telephone API,you will good reference for it in DEVELOPER GUIDE to Visual C++ and MSDN

I'm very new to COM. For some reason I just cannot seem to create this object CLSID_VideoMixingRenderer9. I'm basically using code copied right out of the DirectX SDK. The program compiles fine but when the program runs CoCreateInstance returns doesnt create the object. I've compaired the HRESULT returned from CoCreateInstance to the possible return values listed for CoCreateInstance but none of them match. The value of HRESULT is -2147220877.
PLEASE HELP THIS IS DRIVING ME OUT OF MY MIND.

Either DirectDraw has not been installed or the Video Card capabilities are not suitable. Make sure the display is not in 16 color mode.

Hello,
I know the CLSID of the COM- object and I would like to retrieve the TypeLibrary ID of the Type Library describing it. (I want to get the ITypeLib interface of the typelib..)
I noticed in the Windows registry that the TypeLib ID is present in a subkey of the CLSID so I could get it from there, but I think that might not be the correct way to get to it... So if anybody knows I`ld be gratefull if you would share your knowledge.
Greetings,
Davy

I would probably use that way you described - seek in registry and load it by LoadRegTypeLib getting the ITypeLib interface.
Other possibility, but somehow limited is that if you have an object, who support IDispatch interface, you can create the object using the CLSID you know, asking for the IDispatch.
Then you can use the IDispatch::GetTypeInfo, returning the ITypeInfo, which in turn you can ask for the ITypeLibrary by using ITypeInfo::GetContainingTypeLib.
But this requires the component to support IDispatch.
Another way, I got from the head is getting the path to the dll or exe, where the object resides and use the LoadTypeLib function.
Hope this helps

Hello everybody,
(For starters I'm new at COM and such so bear with me)
I am writing projects for handheld devices (PocketPC, ARM, MIPS, etc..) these devices need to access a COM - component on a desktop PC. So after some reading about COM it seemed that DCOM(communication over network with COMcomponents) was what I need. Allas DCOM apparantly is not supported on the WindowsCE (if I'm wrong here please let me know..)
So now I'm thinking about writing a desktop app that will capture messages from the handheld devices it would then, depending extra data it sends, contact the requested COM component and execute certain methods, and finally the app would send data back to the device (communication with device using windows sockets).
My documentation concerning COM is not the latest stuff that's out there (1996 ), so I will very quickly lay out my plan and I would like to ask you if my ideas are outdated or not (better ways to get where I want and how or URL's are welcome).
My idea roughly outlined:
(desktop app needs to be able to handle all kind of com-componentes so should be kind of generic)
The device makes a connection to a predefined port on the PC where the app is listening (Windows sockets). After connection is succesfully established:
Step 1: Device sendsCLSID or ProgID of the COM-class it wants to use-> the desktopApp searches for CLSID and checks if Component is known and accessible
Step 2: Device sends method it wants to invoke(optional sends also the Interface) -> The desktop app searches (incase no interface was passed)using the ITypeLib and ITypeInfo for an interface that implements the method and if it is found calls the method. Afterwards the desktop app return any data to the device.
Step 3: after device is finished with all its method calls it sends a quit or smthing-> desktop app releases the COM-obj.
This is a very brief layout of my idea(I know implementing it will get much more complicated but I just want to get your comments on the basic idea)... Is this the way to get the job done? Is there a better technology out there that does this?
Thanks to anyone that might help,
Greetings,
Davy

You don't say which version on WinCE you're using, and whether you can alter the build of the devices (your own products based on SBCs), or if they are 'canned' (like HP iPaq).

I have created a com server in a dll and when I attempt to register the server using regsvr32 I recieve an error message stating that the module could not be found. I was wondering if anyone new of the cause for that (I have checked the path and it is correct). Thanks in advance.
|
|

|

Well check following things,
1) Try to load your DLL like ordinary DLL . If loadlibrary does not work out then your DLL is in incorrect .
2)Now next try will be check out wether your DLL is having all basic COM functions needed (exports).
Look for MSDN if u dont know the basic COM exports

Thanks for the information. I got past the cannot find module error but not I am receiving a cannot find DllRegisterServer entry point error. I have tried removing the macros and explicitly defining the function types. I forward defined them like this:
<br />
extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) HRESULT STDAPICALLTYPE DllRegisterServer();<br />
extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) HRESULT STDAPICALLTYPE DllUnregisterServer();<br />
The function bodies look like this:
<br />
extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) HRESULT STDAPICALLTYPE DllRegisterServer() {<br />
<br />
return RegisterServer(g_hModule, CLSID_Component1, g_szFriendlyName, g_szVerIndProgID, g_szProgID);<br />
}<br />
<br />
extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) HRESULT STDAPICALLTYPE DllUnregisterServer() {<br />
<br />
return UnregisterServer(CLSID_Component1, g_szVerIndProgID, g_szProgID);<br />
}<br />
Again thanks for the help.
