The key is I do not have the source code for the COM nor the header though. So I cannot include the header. Thanks for your suggestions anyway.

Thanks so much, Abhishek!
I got it done, the trick is I need to declare the LPDISPATCH and convert to my desired COM refrence type explicitly. However, I declare the handler function the same as what is described in .tlh!
I want to correct is that you don t have to get the COM header, what you need is simply import the dll and use the smart pointer.

I think that you should write
BSTR str;<br />
result->get_Name( & str );
Or better
CComBSTR str;<br />
result->get_Name( & str );
With best wishes,

Hello
We have a big problem with our System.
We developed a Web-Side with IIS and ASP and a Automation-Dll(COM) written in MFC 7.0. A User can login and the ASP creates the COM-Object in the ASP-Session-object. All Information are stored in the Com-Object. It's installed as in-Process and the COM-Object is set to Neutral-Threadingmodel.
Now, when the COM-Object crash, sometimes the IIS restarts and all User have to login again. Sometimes the IIS can't restart and we have to restart the W2k Server.
I changed the settings in the IIS to Out-Process (so it isn't in the same memory) but nevertheless the IIS restart on any COM-Object-Crash.
What is the best way to develope a big existing MFC-Application to a COM-Object and using it as a WEB-Application with ASP. There are about 100 USer in the same time online....

To prevent IIS crash, you could try to register your com object in COM+ as a "Server" application. Here is what you need to do:
1. Register your com object.
2. Create a blank COM+ app, make sure it is a "Server" not a "Library" app.
3. Import your com object (add it as a component to the COM+ app).
Then you can use it in your ASP pages (by calling CreateObject). The com object will not be running within the IIS process. You have to test whether this solves your problem or creates a new problem, etc.
The best approach is to fix the bug so that it won't crash, of course.
Good luck.

Hi,
I have a doubt. Can we make use of a component developed in 16 bit Operating system in 32 bit O.S. If yes, then how does a 16 bit component will be resolved in 32 bit O.S ? Is there any work around to call 16 bit component in 32 bit component ?
Please give me a brief solution with example,if possible.
Thank you

Hi dear 
u can call a component devloped in 16 bit OS in 32 bit OS using Thunking mechanism.
there are 32-bit Generic Thunk Functions using which u can call ur component.
One can also access the component devloped in 32 bit os in 16 bit OS ,using the same thunking mechanism for which u have to use 16-bit Generic Thunk Functions.
u can refer to "THUNKING" topic of MSDN.

I have a COM object I'm using in an ATL project. One of the COM object's exposed interfaces is called IWTonload. According to the COM object's documentation, a class implements the IWTonload by having a method in the class called .onloadComplete.
In Java, I would go
<br />
public myClass implements IWTOnLoad<br />
{<br />
...<br />
void onLoadComplete()<br />
{<br />
}<br />
<br />
}
In C# I would go
<br />
public myClass: IWTOnLoad<br />
{<br />
void onLoadComplete()<br />
{<br />
}<br />
}
How would I implement this IWTOnLoad COM interface in a C++ ATL project? Any help is greatly appreciated.
The graveyards are filled with indispensible men.

Hi there ,
In ATL it can be done very easily , insert an ATL class in ur project .
Now insert ur component in the same project .
In Class view , right click on ur ATL class , a menu will pop up , click on inplement interface.
now browse for ur interface select it and click on implement.

I don't think it's a matter of registration. After all Microsoft.mshtml is the interop assembly for InternetExplorer's mshtml.dll, and this wasn't registered Internet Explorer wouldn't work.
This exception can be thrown more about an interop issue (bad use of objects or interfaces, or even if the object inside is not yet initialized.
When I had this kind of issues last year, I tried adding code to my code sequence (even with stupid method calls) only to make sure the underlying objects were initialized and valid.
Good luck!

Hi Stephane,
Yes it is Interop but isn’t the underlying code in MSTHML.dll? Or am I missing something? The statement is also so simple.
Dim objevent As New CEventObj()
Of interest when I create a Console.WriteLine(objevent.returnValue),
property in the CeventObjClass, Studio based on the dim does not complain and shows me the correct object list to select .returnValue from the class.
Thanks, GregC

Hi Stephane,
One more thing even if I spell it all out like
Dim objevent As New mshtml.CEventObjClass()
I get the same result

Exactly.
Interop issues can be one of these, in order of importance :
- underlying (unmanaged) object not initialized
- bad parameter or interface marshalling
- security, access denied
In your case, if could be an interop issue, but it could just be that the object you are using is lacking a context.
I have just taken a look at mshtml.dll, and CEventObj is an interface, not an object. So you will never successfully create an instance of CEventObj (it's a pity that they have given it such a name).
The implementation for the interface is CEventObjClass.
Creating an instance of CEventObjClass should work better.
That being said, I think it's best to stick with an existing sample. By default, I wouldn't pledge that you can create a useful and relevant instance of CEventObjClass by yourself. Most of the time with mshtml.dll, what you do is "get" objects down from the current document object.
Your code might be ok, I don't know though.

Hi Stephane,
Sorry, yes the dim I wrote as I was writing the message is the interface, I left off the Class suffix. I have tried it a bunch of different ways
Dim objevent As New CEventObjClass()
Dim objevent As New mshtml.CeventObjClass
In fact none of the classes will work in the dll. I get the same COMException for any I try.
What I’m actually trying is to get MS Knowledge Base Article 279535 to work. The short program uses a property in the class CEeventObjClass to disable script error checking for forms hosting a WebBrowser control. For whatever reasons Microsoft did not implement this disabling script feature for WebBrowser controls by selecting it from IE (even through it is really the same object). It is available for IE. So they supply you with a code example in VB6 not VB.net to address this problem. Actually I can understand why they did it this way because you might want to disable script error checking for IE but not completely across any applications that host Web controls on the same system. So since I’m trying to rework MS code I’m not flying to blind… Or am I!!!!
Well, if you think of anything please let me know and thanks for your help!
Thanks, GregC

Don't get it wrong, but I think you don't understand what you are doing.
The support KB article you refer to NEVER creates an instance of the CEventObjClass.
Quite the contrary, the only thing it does is change a property value on the event interface being passed by the IE event dispatch mechanism.
In the support KB article, objEvent is that interface. It's created by IE and passed along to subscribers.
Now that I know what's going on, I wonder what's your problem here. You just need to reproduce the code that is given in the support KB article. There is no "New event something " involved in here.
Good luck!

I’m a Network engineer I’m not programmer heavy and I think I understand what you are saying.
I did try the code exactly as stated in the article but I ran into other problems (below) with the dim statements. What I was attempting to do was to go a different way. I was hoping I could set the field True in the CEventObjclass (which I thought this code is trying to do) and if I could do that I was hoping I could set return value true always regardless of an onError event so that I could continually disable script error checking.
Ok that being said are you saying that the field being made available through the interfaces (really address pointers), passed in a sense to its subscribers (a webbrowser control) is really a property of IE? Am I correct in understanding what you are saying?
I’m getting Com errors with the standard dims described in the article.
The first Interface dim works fine:
dim withevents for HTMLDocument
The second interface dim does not work:
Dim WithEvents objwind As New mshtml.HTMLWindow2()
Additional information: COM object with CLSID {D48A6EC6-6A4A-11CF-94A7-444553540000} is either not valid or not registered.
And of course the third does not work either:
Dim objevent As New CEventObj() did not work as stated in the article
Additional information: COM object with CLSID {3050F48A-98B5-11CF-BB82-00AA00BDCE0B} is either not valid or not registered.
In trying to resolve the COMException for the dim of Interface CEventObj I have tried un-registering and re-registering the interop dll Microsoft.mshtml.dll in \Program Files\Microsoft.net\Primary Interop Assembles\
Any ideas?
I get the same kind of error when trying the code it exactly in the KBase Article. Please let me know if my understanding now about passing the field is correct.
After all I never get upset about this stuff everything we do is a learning experience.
Thanks, GregC

Change your glasses.

Yes, there is another way to disable script error when you are hosting the web control. The way it is explained in the support KB article is a transient way of disable script errors. In fact, they are not disabled. You subscribe the onerror event, and wheenever an error occurs you block it rather than let IE popup a message box.
This is transient. This code must be executed for each new web page being loaded.
There is a way to do it for the entire life cycle of your application, and without changing the users options in the registry (Internet options / Advanced / ...). I guess you can find a support KB article but from what I remember, you have to use the ExecCmd method and pass it a special OLECMDID_DISABLEERRORXXXXXXX cmd id (I don't remember the name). You won't find the cmd id in the MSDN doc though, for some reason.

I like the way to use COM wrapper class which the ClassWizard produce for me, but I cannot figure out how to implement the connection point through it. The COM events are all been commented out saying
// method 'ExecutionOver' not emitted because of invalid return type or parameter type ,...
kind of boring, anyone has some idea?
thanks in advance

I'm trying to set a property in the following class:

Hi all,
I have a Windows 2000 Service that can be accessed via a COM interface. In fact I used the "DrawServ" example from the MSDN as a pattern for this. Talking to the service with this COM object works fine, like this (VB in an Excel sheet):
Dim myService As CMyServ
Set myService = New CMyServ
test = myService.getLong() 'simply returns a long
Now I tried to create a more complex method call that should return another COM object.
Dim doc As CMyDocument
doc = myService.getDocument()
For this I had to create a new type in the IDL but using the ATL wizard delivered many errors (missing header files, etc.). So I decided to make all type declarations / definitions for CMyDocument manually (IDL is appended below).
Now my first question is: Where shall I create the document object?
In VB like this?:
Dim doc As CMyDocument
Set doc = New CMyDocument
doc = myService.getDocument()
Or in the implementation of getDocument() using CoCreateInstance()?
Anyway (and I tried both ways!) whenever I'm asking for memory for a CMyDocument the appropriate call needs about 15 seconds only to tell me that "something went wrong". In Basic I get a runtime error without an error code, in VC++ I get CO_E_SERVER_EXEC_FAILURE (=0x80080005L) as a result index.
This leads me to my second question: What's wrong?
Of course all necessary registration and initialization has been done, has it? I'm checking this the whole day...
Any help is appreciated,
thanks in advance,
Tobias

Well, I fixed it finally. Or let's say: I found out.
First of all I decided to try it with the ATL wizard again, removing all errors it created - and that was a long walk...
Anyway the main problem remained.
By chance (!) I found that all works fine, if all char's are declared as unsigned char's. Mmhh...
But that just opened another problem: VB could not deal with it! The property ID of a CMyDocument could be set but not read. Finally I figured that out, too: You need to declare strings as BSTR in the IDL.
Conclusion: OK, I'm really not too experienced with COM and VBA and with transferring data from VB to C++. But for those out there who knows Eclipse: I hope for your sake that you never ever have to work with the .NET IDE. The wizards there are full of black magic... 
Bye,

Hi,
I've got a problem, calling via remoting, a COM+ which activation is type library. I configure the client application and the web.config file, then I make the call, and that's ok. The problem appears because my COM+ application has to read information from a configuration file. My first attempt to solve this, was to introduce this information in the web.config file, but it doesn't work. The fact is that the configuration file which it's been read is aspnet_wp.exe.config, instead web.config.
I am creating the COM+ through a wrapper. When I call the wrapper, it is executed in one AppDomain, but when the wrapper creates the instance of the component, the AppDomain is changed to the Default AppDomain, changing also the configuration file used.
I hope to give enough information (and understable!!!;P) If you need further information, please, don't hesitate asking me.
Thanks,
Ivan.
