As soon as I got a Win2k machine, I noticed that i couldn't register ONE out of my FOUR classes.
I went in my source code, and I noticed that when I tried to modify project for custom marshaling, I commented out the COM_INTERFACE_ENTRY(IDispatch) for two interfaces, and the third I modified it into COM_INTERFACE_ENTRY (IUnknown). The ONLY class that was right, was the only one that could not be registered. Fixing it, on a 2k machine registers and starts regurlary. Now, it's to try on a XP machine... but I think it will work.... Yesterday was a bad day, you know, I made so many bad things.... Today is a good day, many problems getting away...

Hi,
I searched some months ago for ebooks on the web, but I just found the COM Specification on Microsoft Web Site.
I purchased a book that has been a bible for me, Don Box's "Essential Com".
That's all, I'm sorry

I recommend you to have a look in the MSDN library[^]
. There is a lot of information there.
And there are a lot of articles very helpful here in The Code Project. For example...
From Joao C. Morais -- All of them. The articles are a very good introduction to COM Architecture[^]
From Lim Bio Liong -- All of them are indispensables. Have a look in the Beginners and COM sections.

Perhaps more information on the nuts and bolts of how one actually *writes* this software may be helpful.. I have a step-by-step DCOM tutorial, where I build a simple server which says "Hello, world!" back to the client, may help put some of this in practical perspective...
The tutorials are written as a series of separate articles, called Steps, which cover the major breakpoints in the development of the system.
Step 1 of the tutorial for VC 6 is at
http://www.codeproject.com/com/HelloTutorial1.asp[^]
And Step 1 of the turtorial for Visual C++.NET 2003 is at
http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/HelloTutorial1NET.asp[^]
I tried to write the tutorials in Microsoft-ese, so you can follow along as if you were reading the Scribble tutorial. The VS.NET version is still a work in progress; that's why it's still in "Unedited User Constributions."
Not all the Steps have been written for the VS.NET version yet. But I am working on it!
Stay tuned!

Try looking at some of the ADO, OLEDB, or ODBC samples in code project.

This is just a query asking clarification. I have heard that due to the arrival of .Net, COM is getting phased out. Is this true.

Well, have you seen anything new on the COM-front?  It'll be around and supported for quite some time I believe for legacy reasons, but I doubt there will be any new features.

Don Box wrote something about this
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/1200/com/[^]
I agree with the previous post. I'm new in COM (6 months ago I didn't known anything about), and it's true that there won't be anything new, but somehow it's surviving. People continue developing components (starting at me).

I am beginner in COM.
I have come across a InvokeHelper Function.Most of them contain the syntax as follows
InvokeHelper(0x1f, DISPATCH_PROPERTYPUT, VT_EMPTY, NULL, NULL);
I understood the rest of the parameters except for the first one.
The MSDN says it identifies the method.I would like to know how to check the what that hexadecimal number(the 1st parameter) refers to??
is it method name translated to hexadecimal form??
I mean how to check which number refers to which control??
Any Kind of Help Would Be Highly Appreciated

Look for the function number in your component's idl, if its written by yourself,
or in the typelib of the component.
interface IMySecurity : IDispatch<br />
{<br />
[id(1), helpstring("First function.")] <br />
HRESULT First();<br />
[id(2), helpstring("Second function.")] <br />
HRESULT Second();<br />
};
The numbers are the ids.

I created win application with comboBox1, axAcroPDF1, button1.
The code looks like this:
…Button1_Click()…
{
if(comboBox1.Text =="myfile1.pdf")
{
axAcroPDF1.LoadFile(@"\myfile1.pdf");
axAcroPDF1.Show();
}
else if(comboBox1.Text =="myfile2.pdf"))
{
axAcroPDF1.LoadFile(@"\myfile2.pdf");
axAcroPDF1.Show();
}
}
It displayed "myfile1.pdf" when I chose "myfile1.pdf" from comboBox1 and pressed the button but gave me the error when I tried to display "myfile2.pdf". Does anybody know how to fix this problem?
Thanks

hi folks;)
I need to put a struct (in which i have another struct...) into a VARIANT to pass it between DCOM client and server methods.
I would like to avoid custom marshaling (i've never done it and the customer is getting angry... so I have no time to spend on it...).
How can I do?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
First of all, thanks for your prompt reply!
Well, I can say that in 3 sheets of paper there's the informations I searched for days!
Only one thing, SafeArrayCreateEx function and VT_RECORD vartype are not declared in my Visual Studio 6. Can I get access to them installing service packs?
Many thanks, you're great!
Hope can help you back in future,
bye for now,
Morenz

They are declared in my installation of Visual Studio 6. I'm using SP5. The easiest way to find out your service pack level is to launch Visual Basic, since the service pack number is included in the splash screen graphic.
Download service packs from here[^].
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

Many thanks.
My problem was that I did not know if that new function was implemented in a later service pack or other stuff. Telling me that you have that function in your SP5 resolved me the problem, so I'm installing SP6 (that I had in the past, on the other computer).
OK, let's implement those final functions and make the customer happy!
Thanks to everyone again!
