Hello everyone,

I am thinking when we should use the typelib id? The only case is when we use the typelib id to load a type library when calling LoadTypeLib. Any other cases when we need to use typelib id?

thanks in advance,
George

Obtaining HWND from CString

Hi
I have a CString containing the hexidecimal handle to a window.
For example 00010AC2.
I want to obtain an actual HWND from it to pass to a function.
Transmit(HWND hWindow, ...other variales ).

So please how do I convert this hexidecimal CString into a HWND type?

Many thanks for your time.

CString szMyString = _T("00010AC2");
TCHAR *szStop;
HWND hWnd = (HWND) _tcstol(szMyString, &szStop,16);

If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

IUnknown interface

George_George13-Sep-08 21:22

13-Sep-08 21:22

Hello everyone,

I am confused about one simple concept of IUnknown when reading some code,

1. Every coclass component must implement IUnknown, but not a must that every interface (which the coclass component implements) must implement IUnknown;

2. Every interface of every coclass component must implement IUnknown.

Which one is correct?

thanks in advance,
George

Re: IUnknown interface

CPallini13-Sep-08 22:10

Every interface of every COM component must implement IUnknown since every interface is required to support interface navigation via QueryInterface.

Thanks CPallini,

Cool! I think your option is you agree with my option 2. Then another question, suppose my component implements interface IX and IY, and both IX and IY will implement IUnknown, so will there be diamond problem?

regards,
George

Nope (a coclass is not a C++ class).

Thanks CPallini,

I think for the diamond issue I mentioned, you mean writing some code like this in my sample? The normal solution is providing one common implementation of AddRef/Release/QueryInterface in CFoo, so there is no diamond problem?

CFoo:IX, IY {// provide one common implementation of AddRef/Release/QueryInterface in CFoo, so there is no diamond problem?}

IX:IUnknown{}

IY:IUnknown{}

IUnknown{}

George

Thanks Hamid,

Looks like different from what CPallini said -- CPallini said every interface must implement IUnknown, but the wiki page mentioned every component must implement IUnknown -- "COM objects must minimally implement this interface"? I am confused.

Could you clarify please? Smile | :)

George
