Hi,
I'm writing a control to return a Picture Object for use with Visual Basic, but I'm having problems figuring out how to return the IPictureDisp in ATL. I have the IPictureDisp object but I don't know how to return the reference.
Can anyone offer suggestions or pointers to some example code on how to return the Picture Object? Any help/comments appreciated.
Thanks!

Why I need the UDP ?
i want to create something (Like OCX or DLL) to let the server send a message to the client(s) inform them to refresh ,redirect ,there is new email, XXX is logged on.
how i'm thinking to solve this problem?
create client OCX (without using the WinSock.OCX) to wait and manage the server message. and create an DLL on the server that will send the message to the Client OCX. (i think this is a good solution ?! do you think that ????!! )
What i want ?
i do not know how to write a code deal with UDP ?!
if you have another idea ?? i'll be pleased to you if you send it to me
Note : I’m talking about intranet.
Can any one there help me ? or give and any article(s) that could help ?!

Hi,
I am building OCX which uses other OCX files. I pack those in one CAB file, which should be distributed over intranet.
Each time I add a new functionality to my OCX file I change file version from 2.0.0.4 to 2.0.0.5 for example.
I include this version change in my INF file however, once i downloaded my control (2.0.0.4) on remote machine it is being loaded (the one with no 2.0.0.4 - even though i have 2.0.0.5 in a cab) every time i call this control but with HIGHER version number 2.0.0.5.
I tried to change my cab file name, and i place a new cab with newer control in deifferent directory. It does not work. I need to delete once installed control version say 2.0.0.4 from c:\winnt\downloaded program files in order to download and install newer version 2.0.0.5
Where is there a mistake ? I cannot expect client to clear registry in order to install newer version of control.
I would appreaciate any help.
thank you

How can I pass an IDispatch pointer into C++? My C++ method is expecting a <vector> of smart pointers (std::vector<xxptr<object>> ) to C++ objects. Since I am using a VB front-end, I pass a set of IDispatch pointers to ATL via the variant type.
Now, I am stuck with a set of IDispatch pointers to the objects and I don't know how to pass them into C++.
Any ideas?
thanks,

What do you mean pass them to C++?
What do you plan to acheive with your objects?
|
|
|
|

You can use IDispatch* ,LPDISPATCH or IDispatchPtr (smart pointer created from import)
to pass IDispatch pointers to your C++ methods.
Kindest regards

How can I load Activex component from .ocx file? I don't want to use
insert new object dialog. Do I have to make some changes to component
itself? Thanks for help allready

Just #import the typelib and go about creating component the usual way with CoCreateInstance()
Hush..Hush.. thought I heard you calling my name now...

I built a COM object and installed it in MTS. I'm referencing to it in an ASP page and in that page I need to loop through its properties without hardcoding them. With ADO object I can do this
DIM prop
FOR EACH prop IN <object name="">.properties
...
NEXT
But when I tried this with the COM object that I've built, the ".properties" is not a option.
So is there a way to loop into the collection of properties with a custom COM object ? Do I have to toggle an option or to add a reference in the object ?

Is properties a property or method that you've added to the COM object! if not take a look on MSDN for TLBINF32.DLL it's a COm object that will let you iterate through an object properties/methods.

Hi all !
Explain this question who is able to
16. You design a COM component for use by many user interface applications in your company. One of the interface methods for the component defines a parameter for an IP address as a string in the format nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn. The component's type library defines this parameter as both an input and an output parameter.
When the interface method is called, the component validates the IP address. If the current user is forbidden to access that address, then the component should change the parameter to the string 0.0.0.0 and display this string within the application.
Which type of COM component should you design?
A. data-aware class
B. distributed COM server component
C. out-of-process COM server component
D. ActiveX user interface Control
Thanks.

Hi ......
I have a composite control with some buttons on it, I want them
to react on me pressing enter. I tried to overload the pretranslatormethod and
catch it, but the funny thing is that it only works randomly, sometimes it works and
sometimes it doesnt. Have you come across anything like that before ? I cant solve it

Hi,
VB stores some data about connections points it exports in the linked thread's TLS, thus when I try to callback an event, I get an Acces Violation. I found a code snippet by microsoft, but it doesn't seem to work in all cases, and event worse, didn't allow me to transfer interfaces ...
Thank you

I recently installed the Platform SDK, and suddenly started getting linker errors on GetObjectContext on codes that were previously running OK. When I looked through the Platform SDK sample codes, and the recent samples on .NET (FMStocks7 GAM - Business Logic Layer), I noticed that GetObjectContext is still being used. I noticed the documentation says you should use COM+. What is going on. I have a lot of code that uses GetObjectContext function, and that could break if I re-compile.
When I compile with VC++ 6.0 SP3 without the Platform SDK, I do not get the errors. The code was originally written using SP3, I have recently installed SP5.
Thanks

I have a question about "Inside COM" by Dale Rogerson.
In aggregation part of Chapter 9
HRESULT __stdcall CA::Init()
{
IUnknown* pUnknownOuter = this ;
HRESULT hr =
::CoCreateInstance(CLSID_Component2,
pUnknownOuter,
CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,
IID_IUnknown, (void**)&m_pUnknownInner) ;
if (FAILED(hr))
{
return E_FAIL ;
}
hr = m_pUnknownInner->QueryInterface(IID_IY,
(void**)&m_pIY) ; if (FAILED(hr))
{
m_pUnknownInner->Release() ;
m_pUnknownInner = NULL ;
m_pIY = NULL ; // Just to be safe
return E_FAIL ;
}
pUnknownOuter->Release() ;
return S_OK ;
}
From above, I don't understand the following part.
hr = m_pUnknownInner->QueryInterface(IID_IY,
(void**)&m_pIY) ;
I guess delegating QI of Inner Component will call QI
of Outer Component and it should call Nondelegating QI
of Inner Component.
How come the following is calling Nondelegating QI?
HRESULT __stdcall CA::QueryInterface(const IID& iid,
void** ppv)
{
else if (iid == IID_IY)
{
// You can query for the interface.
return m_pUnknownInner->QueryInterface(iid,ppv) ;
}
....
Thanks,
|

Hey there,
I believe CA::QI -is- calling the non-delegating query: m_pUnknownInner is a pointer to the non-delegating version of IUnknown. When an aggregatable object is created, the new object will return the non-delegating IUnknown: this is the one and only time that an object will return the non-delegating interface, rather than the "usual" delegating interface, when IUnknown is requested. This is why the aggregating parent object -must- query for the IUnknown interface when it's calling CoCreateInstance() for the child object: if it didn't ask for IUnknown at create-time, then it would never be able to get the non-delegating interface....
Note there's certainly other ways of doing aggregation, too: take a look at Don Box's method in Essential COM, too....

Hello...
I appreciate your reply.
I think I didn't get the Cast part when it
creats the inner component.
After I got that, your answer got crystal clear ^^
I will definately take a look at Essential COM.
Thanks
