I'm integrating a newly created COM component into an existing GUI. When the program returns from the following implicit call, the PIUnknown pointer gets set to zero and the program subsequently fails. I have no clue what's happening and I can't step into the function to see. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Here is the function call:
hr = CoCreateInstance(rclsid, pOuter, dwClsContext, __uuidof(IUnknown), reinterpret_cast<void**>(&pIUnknown));
thanks, mark

Shouldn't that be:
hr = CoCreateInstance(rclsid, pOuter, dwClsContext, __uuidof(IUnknown), reinterpret_cast<void**>(&pIUnknown));
or did you not turn off HTML tags?
Have you verified that your pointer to the outer object is valid?

So what's the value of hr ? CoCreateInstance reports the reason for a failure.
You do occasionally get badly-implemented COM components which return a success code when asked for their primary interface, but fail (returning E_NOINTERFACE ) when asked for IUnknown . This is of course an implementation error - all components must implement IUnknown .

Are you calling CoInitialize(NULL)?

Hello,
i try to use late binding for office automation with powerpoint and c#.
I found some examples for word which work fine:
<br />
Type comType;<br />
object comObject;<br />
<br />
comType = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("Word.Application"); <br />
comObject = Activator.CreateInstance(comType);<br />
<br />
object o = comType.InvokeMember("Application", BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.GetProperty, null, oPptAppObject, null);<br />
...<br />
...<br />
So far everything works fine. The Compiler is happy
But when i replace the ...("Word.Application")... with ...("PowerPoint.Application")...
i get an exception (which says: unknown name) for line with:
object o = comType.InvokeMember.....
Also "Application" is a Member of PowerPoint, like it is in Word.
I also tried other Members from PowerPoint but was not lucky.
I googled the whole day, but no solution.
Can anybody help me please?
It have no idea what to do.
Thanks a lot!

"Word.Application" is the ProgID, it doesn't mean access the "Application" member of "Word".
I don't have PowerPoint installed on my computer, just the Viewer. I would use "PowerPointView.Application" to instansiate the viewer.
Do you have PowerPoint installed on your computer?

In *.idl file:
interface Ixxxx : IDispatch
{
[id(1), helpstring("method GetData")] HRESULT GetData(LPCTSTR Key, DWORD *Data);
[id(2), helpstring("method SetData")] HRESULT SetData(LPCTSTR Key, const DWORD Data);
}; Both these methods generate warning MIDL2039 : interface does not conform to [oleautomation] attribute : [ Parameter 'Key' of Procedure 'GetData' ( Interface 'Ixxxx') ]. Other than these warnings the interface seems to run correctly. Is it something I have to worry about or can I safely ignore them. If I have to worry about it, how do I go about fixing it? All MSDN says is make sure the interface is derived from IUnknown or IDispatch.

Classes marked as "dual" have implied oleautomation attribute.
The oleautomation attribute simply means that the interface is compatible with older versions of Visual Basic, VBScript, JavaScript, etc. (i.e. untyped scripting languages).
If you don't need your interface to be compatible with any of those, then you can ignore the warning.
If you need to be compatible, you can get rid of the error by replaycing LPCTSTR with BSTR.

Thanks, I don't need them to be compatible (so far ) but I hate getting warnings in my code, makes me nervous that I am doing something wrong. I changed the LPCTSTR s to const BSTR s and all is well.

requirements minimum to install an application developed in C #using COM+ [. NET] in a computer with WIN98?

hello..
I have finished an application developed in C #using COM+ and I have the following errror:
at System.EnterpriseServices.ServicedComponentProxy.CleanupQueues(Boolean bGit)
at System.EnterpriseServices.ServicedComponentProxyAttribute.CreateInstance(Type serverType)
at System.Runtime.Remoting.Activation.ActivationServices.IsCurrentContextOK(Type serverType, Object[] props, Boolean bNewObj)
at WinInterface.Login.btnAceptar_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e)
The type initializer for "System.EnterpriseServices.ServicedComponentProxy" threw an exception.
The application has been created in WINXP and will settle in WIN98SE.
Code Sample ... All BusinessLogic.

I have a minimal C# project with a form containing a AxSHDocVw.AxWebBrowser. The project also contains a UserControl that has been given a GUID to act as an ActiveX-compnent. The UserControl has its backgroup color set (yellow) but besides that it does "nothing".
During execution the HTML code: "<html><body><object classid=\"clsid:#GUID#\"></object></body></html>"
is loaded into the AxWebBrowser and the yellow UserControl is shown.
The problem occurs after Dispose. When the form is closed it's Dispose method is called and the application freezes.
The stack trace tells me that the execution has stopped in system.windows.forms.dll!System.Windows.Forms.Control.ActiveXImpl.SetClientSite
If I explicitly call AxWebBrowser.Dispose() the application freezes at that line of code.
If I omit the ActiveX from the HTML the problem does not occur.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

I am using an IHTMLDocument class to sent text information to the printer in HTML format. One problem I have encountered is that I want to send many HTML documents in one go. There is no HTML tag for "page break" so I must send each document as a different print job. If I'm doing this the print dialog box will be thrown up 20 times (being a real pain for the user).
I know that the flag PRINT_DONTBOTHERUSER can be set to stop the dialog being activated but there is next to no info on Google and MSDN is really unhelpful. Has anyone with experience in COM done this before? Is there any example code you could demonstrate?
For info, here is the code I am using to perform the print job:
// includes for COM stuff
#include <comdef.h>
#include <mshtml.h>
#pragma warning(disable : 4146) // see Q231931 - MSDN
#import <mshtml.tlb> no_auto_exclude
// end of COM stuff
......
bool CSomeClass::PrintHTMLNotes(void)
{
// get IHTMLDocument handle
MSHTML::IHTMLDocument2Ptr pDoc;
HRESULT hr = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_HTMLDocument, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,
IID_IHTMLDocument2, (void**)&pDoc);
if (pDoc==NULL)
return false;
// convert string to safearray
SAFEARRAY* psa = SafeArrayCreateVector(VT_VARIANT,0,1);
VARIANT *param;
hr = SafeArrayAccessData(psa,(LPVOID*)¶m);
param->vt = VT_BSTR;
SAFEARRAY* psaIn = SafeArrayCreateVector(VT_VARIANT,0,1);
VARIANT *pvaIn;
hr = SafeArrayAccessData(psaIn,(LPVOID*)&pvaIn);
pvaIn->vt = VT_ARRAY;
pvaIn->iVal = PRINT_DONTBOTHERUSER;
// write data to document
bstr_t bsData;
for (int i=0; i<m_ncurrentnote; i++)
="" {
="" bsdata="m_csaNotes[i];
" param-="">bstrVal = (BSTR)bsData;
hr = pDoc->write(psa); // write buffer
}
hr = pDoc->close(); // close document (applys code)
SafeArrayDestroy(psa); // clean up
// print the file
CComQIPtr<iolecommandtarget> spTarget = pDoc;
if (spTarget != NULL)
spTarget->Exec(NULL, OLECMDID_PRINT, 0, pvaIn, NULL);
else
return false;
return true;
}

If you have control over the HTML you can add page breaks to it. I'd have to find the code but if you do let me know.

Hi!
I have a COM Class (say MyCOMClass). I'm able to create an object in Access and call its methods. The problem is that the COM object throws events, and i don't know how to handle them.
For example in VB.NET i have
Dim WithEvents myCOMObject as New MyCOMClass
Then, i can catch the events that myCOMObject throws easily. But I have try to do the same in VB for Applications and i can't use WithEvents. So, is there another way?
I'm not a VB programmer, I'm just doing some testing applications for my COM project.
Thanks for the help.

VBA supports WithEvents. You cannot use it in a standard module but you can declare an object WithEvents in a form or a class in MS Access (or any VBA project).
You cannot use WithEvents with the new keyword.
Suppose you have a form in Access.
In the code behind the form add:
Private WithEvents myCOMObject As MyCOMClass
In the Form_Load procedure add:
Set myCOMObject = New MyCOMClass
Presto. Events.

Happy Friday! Gurus,
I am trying to use the logics from Intel OpenCV DLLs, which were originally compiled by MSVC++ 6. From C# or ASP.NET Apps, when I was trying to add reference to these DLLs (i.e. cv096.dll or cxcore096.dll), I got this error:
“A reference to ‘D:\Programs\OpenCV\bin\cv096.dll’ could not be added. This is not a valid assembly or COM component. Only assemblies with extension ‘dll’ and COM components can be referenced. Please make sure it is a valid assembly or COM component.”
Note: The source code of Intel OpenCV DLLs is open source. I can open this source code project in either MSVC++ 6 or VS.NET 2003.
Question: How can I use these DLLs in .NET environment, preferably in ASP.NET and C# projects?
Thanks with a million
Khang

That means it is a standard C/C++ DLL, not a COM Dll. You cannot add a reference to the DLL and use it directly like a COM component.
That means you'll have to use API style declarations to access whatever functions the dlls export. You'll also have to figure out how to translate all the unmanaged types into C# compatible types. I'd start looking for a OpenCV user group if I were you.

Hello
I want to write my COM object so that a C++ program can use it and a VB program can use it also. When I build my COM object using the wizard I get the IDispatch interface which means I can access my COM object using automation. My COM object has methods all of which return either S_OK or S_FALSE depending on what happens during the method call. My C++ program can get the results of a method call to my COM object to find out what went wrong if an error occurred. My VB program cannot do this.
What is the best solution to this problem?
Is there anywhere a guide as to how best write COM objects in C++ that are as language independent as possible but especially C++ and VB?
