If I use the ATL COM AppWizard to create an HTML Control and then embed it in a web page it shows up fine on the monitor, but never prints to the printer. Does anyone know what's going on with that? And while we are at it, the default HTML Control project generates a sample control with 3 buttons labeled Red, Green and Blue that when clicked generate the error "Object doesn't support this property or method". Has anyone else experienced this?

I have a VB application which uses COMponent written on VC++. COMponent implements IConnectionPoint and creates additional threads. Pointer to [source] interface _IOutBound is correctly marshalled between main thread and additional ones.
The problem arises when VB calls Release (and --m_Ref==0). COMponent waits for threads to end and VB cannot serve call to _IOutBound since it is waiting in COMponent. And if one of the threads calling for _IOutBound - I got deadlock.
How can I prevent that deadlock?

Hi,
I'm having some problems using connection points with DCOM. I have an ATL component that contains a connection point used to send events back to the client. When I instatiate it locally it works, but when I instantiate it remotely an error (E_ACCESSDENEID) occurs calling the method DispEventAdvise of the client event handler passing the container component. Can anybody help me?!?
Thanks in advance,
Marcio Azevedo.

Hi Marcio,
Do you configured access control on the remote computer using DCOMCFG ?
If not , it gives the infamous  E_ACCESSDENEID
Hope this helps,

Hi,
I am using a Audio Player ActiveX in VB and VC++ 6.0.
In VB the control runs fine, but in VC++ the control freezes the window
when I play a song.
I'm using CreateInstance method in VC++ to instantiate the control
Can someone tell me what I should do?

Some controls do not have the "windowless activation" feature (they need a window to function correctly). This may or may not be your problem.
Instead of CreateInstance, have you tried to insert the control onto a dialog template in your project? Assuming you are using the control in a CDialog derived class:
1. Click the project menu.
2. Select "Add to project" then "Component and controls".
3. Browse to select your ActiveX control.
4. The above steps will generate a C++ wrapper class derived from CWnd and also place the control on the resource toolbar, you can drag it from there onto your dialog template.
5. You can add a member for this control to your CDialog derived class.

Hi all,
I am suffering from a Read/Write stream operation with CComVariant.
Here is the problem. I create a stream like this:
CreateStreamOnHGlobal(NULL,TRUE,&m_pStream)
then I write to it a VARIANT through CComVariant (in doesn't matter which type it is) like this
m_comVariant = valToWrite;<br />
m_comVariant.WriteToStream(m_pStream);
and read it like this:
m_comVariant.ReadFromStream(m_pStream);<br />
*pvalToRead = m_comVariant;
As a result in the read what I get is a "Bad varibale type" error 
I also tried this with CComBSTR and got the same results
Any ideas?
Thanks a million for any help

Can Win98 clients use COM+ components on Win2000 and will the COM+ components still have the same benefits such as transactions, scalability, etc. managed automatically by COM+?

Hi ,
Is it possible to load other ActiveX controls from one ActiveX Control at
run time.
The ActiveX control I have to develop..whose responsibility is to load
the other activeX controls and PASS parameters they require at run time
The parameters I have to pass and the class ID of the control I will be
getting
from the html page in which my activeX control is present.
For Example:
<object classid="CLSID of My ActiveX control" width="300" height="250">
<param name="" "totalcontrolstoload"="" value="N" />
<param name="" "control="" id"="" value="ToLoad1" />
<param name="Control ID" value="ToLoad2" />
.......................
.......................
<param name="Control ID" value="ToLoad N" />
<object classid="CLSID of Some Active X control One" id="ToLoad1">
<object classid="CLSID of Some Active X control two" id="ToLoad2">
1. Is it possible to for my ActiveX control to get the information of other
activeX controls in the HTML page.
2. Is it possible to load the other active X controls using my control.
3. How do I communicate with other ActiveX controls...
i.e I know control communicates with container...But how do two controls
which are
contained in the same container communicate with each other.
Please send your Inputs/Suggestions /Improvements.
Thanks in Advance,
Raju

Hi,
I created an InProcServer(ToolBand.dll) on my Windows NT Wkts which works fine for NT Server4.0, Win98, 2K, and Me. This doesn't get installed on the setup of Win95 running IE5. I get error message "This function is only valid in Win32 mode". There were some "Ex" Registry API used in DllRegiserServer(). I've replaced it with normal API's i mean without "Ex", but the problem remains same. I get same error message with RegSetValue(..) API. Is there any compatibility issue?
It seems that Windows 95 is not pure win32. Hey Any comments? Why its so ironical behaviour? Should I need to build this application on VC++ running on Windows 95? I there any registry key or service to get some Win32 services on Win95.
I'm fed-up with this behaviour. Help me with any comments.

Is there any simple way of deleting an ATL interface in a VC++ ATL project?
I am a little loath to commenting out or deleting lines manually for the required interface.

Hi all,
This is a somewhat complex issue I guess and most probably the answer is no BUT i have to be sure.
Is the any way at all to declare an STL data type inside an interface declaration?
i.e
interface FOO
{
[helpstring("method FOOFunc")] HRESULT FOOFunc([in]std::vector < std::string > stringVec);
}
If so please tell me how to declare and how to inlude the header files without the MIDL giving me comilation errors
If not... well you can't balem me for trying. 
Thanks in advance.

The method I use in my apps is to call a function to copy my strings, vectors, etc. to IDL-compatible types before passing my data around via a COM method. Then I "unmarshal" the data back into strings, vectors, etc. on the other end. I use CComBSTR and Chris Sells's CComVector for the translation.

Hey all,
I'm pretty new to COM programming in C++ (been doing it in VB for quite a while). I'm looking for an absolutely bare-bones, "instantiate one object, make one method call and spit out the results" snippet of code showing me how to write a C++ client app that uses a COM object.
Like I said, doesn't have to be anything spectacular, I just want to see the steps involved in using a COM object in C++.
I searched the site for simple examples, and even searched on the web some, but didn't find anything (if you know of any good examples, I would appreciate the URLs).
Thanks in Advance

If you ever are interested in getting into DCOM, I have a start-to-finish tutorial on this site. It is very easy to follow, and is simple. All you do is write a COM object with one method. You call the method, and the method tells you, "Hello, World!".
The tutorial starts at http://www.codeproject.com/com/HelloTutorial1.asp. I really recommend you follow straight through and build things yourself while following along. Hope this is a good intro!
Really, the usefulness of COM comes out in doing things between more than one computer, but you can put both the "server" and the "client" together on the same computer and you still get everything.
Hope it helps!
Sincerely Yours,
Brian Hart

Can an ActiveX component ,embedded in an webpage ,listen for IE Events?
|
|
|
|
|
|
thanks Todd,
How does the activeX register itself for IE Events?
are there any security considerations?
Is there any sample example/code provided for the same?

Hello all,
Just a little historyof my project. I have started to develop COM component. Now, I evolve to DCOM component -> switch from IUnknow to IDispatch and DLL server to NTService server.
I have many interfaces.
And one give me this error and it's the most important.
Here the IDL def in the Library part:
[
object,
uuid(535765EA-C024-423A-B921-9F77416CF47F),
dual,
helpstring("ISearchMidiScore Interface, the search interface and the most important"),
pointer_default(unique)
]
interface ISearchMidiScore : IDispatch
{
[helpstring("SetCompareClass, allow user to change the comparison method")]
HRESULT SetCompareClass(
[in] CompareClassEnum classType);
[helpstring("SetSettings, allow user to change the number of result returned")]
HRESULT SetSettings(
[in] int maxSearchElement,
[in] float maxScore);
[helpstring("SearchFromText, allow user to search a music from a set of midi notes separate by a coma")]
HRESULT SearchFromText(
[in, string] BSTR text,
[out] IEnumScoreResult** ppenum);
[helpstring("SearchFromAudio, allow user to search a music from a PCM or a WAV buffer")]
HRESULT SearchFromAudio(
[in] BYTE* audioBuffer,
[in] ULONG audioLength,
[out] IEnumScoreResult** ppenum);
[helpstring("SearchFromScore, allow user to search from a previous score convertion")]
HRESULT SearchFromScore(
[in, out] IScoreDesc* score,
[out] IEnumScoreResult** ppenum);
};
[
object,
uuid(54901242-0019-4986-9328-7260EAEF7D9C),
dual,
helpstring("IEnumScoreResult Interface, enum the result set construct by previous call to ISearchMidiScore search methods"),
pointer_default(unique)
]
interface IEnumScoreResult : IDispatch
{
typedef [unique] IEnumScoreResult *LPENUMSCORERESULT;
[id(1)]
HRESULT Next(
[in] ULONG celt,
[out, size_is(celt), length_is(*pceltFetched)]
IScoreResult **rgelt,
[out] ULONG *pceltFetched);
[id(2)]
HRESULT Skip(
[in] ULONG celt);
[id(3)]
HRESULT Reset();
[id(4)]
HRESULT Clone(
[out] IEnumScoreResult **ppenum);
};
I call the ISearchMidiScore::SearchFromScore(score, enum), it returns a pointer.
When I call IEnumScoreResult::Next, I got the kernel exception.
I have other function working like this 2 - one is calling and give an enumerator pointer - it always work fine.
Before I switch, they work fine too.
Can't see what it is? Do you have any idea? Do you need more info?

The third variable must not be NULL. Should use a long variable and pass its adress.
This solve the problem....

Hello All!
I'm implementing a COM object using ATL under BCB5.
The target is a DLL. It is compiled and built OK. Also I have
a client application that calls DllGetClassObject directly
from this DLL (after dynamic linking) and tries to get
supported CLSID & IID pair.
At that moment I've got the error, that interface is not
supported. After debugging deep inside ATL implemetation
code I've discovered that _ATL_INTMAP_ENTRY map of
my object contains only IUnknown. Please could someone
point out the problem.
Here is some excerpt from implemenation header:
=========================================
class ATL_NO_VTABLE TFooIndexerImpl :
public CComObjectRootEx<CComSingleThreadModel>,
public CComCoClass<TFooIndexerImpl, &CLSID_FooIndexer>,
public IFooIndexer
{
public:
TFooIndexerImpl()
{
}
// Data used when registering Object
//
DECLARE_THREADING_MODEL(otApartment);
DECLARE_PROGID("Indexer.FooIndexer");
DECLARE_DESCRIPTION("");
...
BEGIN_COM_MAP(TFooIndexerImpl)
COM_INTERFACE_ENTRY(IFooIndexer)
END_COM_MAP()
// IFooIndexer
public:
...
};
===========================================
And in another module an object map is defined:
===========================================
BEGIN_OBJECT_MAP(ObjectMap)
OBJECT_ENTRY(CLSID_FooIndexer, TFooIndexerImpl)
END_OBJECT_MAP()
===========================================
So, why the call DllGetClassObject(CLSID_FooIndexer,IID_IFooIndexer,...)
fails?
Thanks in advance.

Why are you calling DllGetClassObject directly? If this is a COM object instantiate it with CoCreate. If you going to call dll functions directly forgo the COM hassles and just make a normal dll and use loadlibrary.
