Nish Nishant24-Jul-02 17:48 Nish Nishant 24-Jul-02 17:48  First, Thanks to Rama A big thank you in fact. I put AfxOleInit and it worked Now the puzzle :- Even without the call to AfxOleInit, it worked when I remove the remoting code! Can someone explain how that could occur? Nish Author of the romantic comedy Summer Love and Some more Cricket [New Win] Review by Shog9 Click here for review[NW] Re: AfxOleInit, Rama and a puzzle! Rama Krishna Vavilala26-Jul-02 4:35 Rama Krishna Vavilala 26-Jul-02 4:35  I had to look and go through your code to find this out. 1. AfxEnableControlContainer is automatically called by CHtmlView so it is not necessary. But still it is a good practice to have it in the InitInstance. 2. MFC requires AfxOleInit in order for control containment to work and I am surprised to see that in VS.NET it is automatically called during CreateControl. If that fails MFC cannot create controls. Now to the actual answer. Activator.GetObject or Activator.CreateInstance initialize COM automatically if it is not initialized and the default is to initialize is COINT_MULTITHREADED. So when MFC tries to call AfxOleInit (COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED) the call fails because you cannot change the apartment type. So the control creation fails. But when you call AfxOleInit in InitInstance Activator.GetObject sees that COM is initialized so it doesnot do anything and everything is fine. Step back, rub your eyes, take a deep breath, stretch a bit, and reflect on the relative importance of CP, CG, the age / travel time sustained by supposedly 'fresh' cheese curds, and Life in General. - Shog9 Re: AfxOleInit, Rama and a puzzle!

My issue is that once we have got our remote object, then for some wacko reasons as yet unknown to me, I am unable to create a view for a frame window. The Create just fails. My solution to this was to create the window and hide it before the remote object was obtained and then to show/hide it as required. But the issue is that sometimes the user can do something where the remote object is created, then he goes back to the main window, then he comes back to this window where the remote frame/view is created. Now if the GC is given enough time to destroy the unused object, everything is fine. But my problem is that the GC is sorta slow on all this and I am having problems. So, how do I force the GC to destroy the remote object? And what do I do if the GC fails to recognize the object as unused and thus fails to free it? Is there anyway I can simulate a delete on a managed object?

So eventually I have decided to stop banging it against VS.NET, and ask you. All I want to do is use the CodeProject WebService in a MC++ class library. I tried to use the Add Web Reference method but for the life of me I cannot then use the newly created WebService.h and latestbrief.dll files. In the AutoComplete there is no reference to LatestBrief, CodeProject, Service1 or even HolyMotherOfGodThereAreALotOFThingsInAMC++AutoCompleteList. I even did what the "Walthrugh: Accessing an XML Web Service Using Managed Extensions C++" article in MSDN said. I know it is something obvious, so please, hit me with it. [edit] There is an "error" in the Task List which reads "f:\data\projects\cp+\cp+classlib\latestbrief.dll Dependency 'latestbrief' of dependency 'CP+ClassLib' is not an assembly.". Could that be the problem? If so, how the hell do I fix that without doing what the help says which is to reinstall VS.NET or the "third party component." ta [edit] thanks. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and to be loved in return - Moulin Rouge Alison Pentland wrote: I now have an image of you in front of the mirror in the morning, wearing your knickers, socks and shoes trying to decided if they match! Re: MC++ and Consuming a Web Service Paul Watson24-Jul-02 7:11 Paul Watson 24-Jul-02 7:11  Figured it out. Firstly intellisense did not list LatestBrief, and me not being very C++ aware, thought that meant the WebService method was not available. How naive! Still getting that Dependency 'latestbrief' of dependency 'CP+ClassLib' is not an assembly. error though. But at least I can get the data now. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass Cape Town, South Africa The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love, and to be loved in return - Moulin Rouge Alison Pentland wrote: I now have an image of you in front of the mirror in the morning, wearing your knickers, socks and shoes trying to decided if they match!
