 Hello I'm new to COM and ATL. I need some help regarding add-ins. I want to make an add-in for the Visual Basic Editor, displayed as a dialog-style window, using Visual C++. I know that COM and ATL are used, but I have no idea how to start.
Also, the displayed dialog needs to keep track of the currently selected item (i.e. a Form, or a control within a Form) and read it's properties (color, text, etc.).
I have looked over the articles discussing add-ins, but they don't address my situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
Here is the part of the EXE code:
if (FAILED (CoInitialize (NULL)))
{
return FALSE;
}
...
...
HRESULT hr;
IWebBrowser2* pWebBrowser = NULL;
hr = CoCreateInstance (CLSID_InternetExplorer, NULL,
CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER, IID_IWebBrowser2,
(LPVOID*)&pWebBrowser);
====> hr is 0x80070005 - Access is denied.
This is happening only with Windows XP/SP2. On the same PC with SP1, it works fine also it works fine on W2K.
Can someone PLEASE help me to solve this issue?
Thanks
SenPy

Maybe you now need to CoInitializeSecurity() ?
XP2 now has a more secure web browser system and this is a good thing.

in one thread all is fine because u are in one apartament. to access interface in another thread i use COM marshaling. CoMarshalInterThreadInterfaceInStream<->CoGetInterfaceAndReleaseStream functions or GIT table.
but i didn't use it on remote threads. hm. maybe this is the part of sollution.

There're no impossible tasks. There're tasks that required infinite period of execution time.

Hello!!
At the beginning I'd like to apologize for posting on group that doesn't fit this subject, but I haven't found any that would fit it.
I am looking for informations, hints or source codes about how to display system resources (cpu load, mem usage...) on active desktop.
I know that I need to use WMI for it and I have found documentation about the WMI on MSDN with WScript example that shows cpu load, but I don't know how to put those informations on a web page (active desktop) and refresh them continuously.
Could anybody help me?
Best regards,
Marcin

I've developed a component (.dll file) on my desktop computer using VC++ 6 running Windows XP SP1. When I run regsvr32 on the the desktop computer, the .dll registers and I'm able to access the component from a client program.
When I attempt to register the same component on a laptop computer (also running Windows XP SP1), regsvr32 runs quietly (not showing a "DllRegisterServer in file.dll succeeded" message or any other message), the .dll doesn't register and I'm not able to access the component from a client program.
Does anyone know why this could happen?
If I run the regsvr32 command in a batch file (on the laptop), %ERRORLEVEL% gets set to 3. Anyone know where I could find out what that might mean?

This is probably a dependency problem. Run the VC dependency walker (depends.exe), and check that all the dependencies for your DLL are present and correct. You can compare the result with your own working computer if you need. If any of the dependencies are missing, or not on the path, then it is likely that the DLL will not register.

Thanks, that was it. MFC Release DLLs were on the laptop, but not the Debug DLLs. regsvr32 registers a Release version of the .dll properly.

How can i check if a CLSID is valid or not without actually creating an object i.e without calling CoCreateInstance
and if CLSIDFromAppID function fails is it necessary that the AppID is wrong
thanks
|
|

|

Hello MailMonty,
One simple way to check whether a CLSID is valid is to check for the existence of that clsid in the registry under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.
Regards,
Bio.

Hello,
I'm hosting WebControl (internet explorer) in desktop application (C++/MFC, and/or C#). Application loads some html pages stored locally. Those pages contain some JavaScript code, which looks something like this:
function GetMYNAME () {
var win = window.parent;
while ( (win.MYNAME == null) && (win.parent != null) && (win.parent != win) )
{
win = window.parent;
}
return win.MYNAME;
}
This looks for object named MYNAME in all framesets of the page. I know how to communicate with JavaScript, I know how to call functions and to get my functions called from JavaScript, but I can't figure out how to do this. I'm thinking that I need somehow to put object named MYNAME into window hierarchy, but I don't have any idea how to do this. Through that object JavaScript needs to call some functions.
Can someone point me the right way?
I can't change that JavaScript because it's auto generated from many sources and the requirement is that it must look just like that. I found out that one can do what I want, but with window.external property, but that's not allowed.

Hey Guys,
I´m fairly new to COM and well .. here comes my newbie question!
I am programming in C++ and I am trying to add a toolbar to the mail window of Outlook, and I want to know the best way to go about it. My current thinking is to use the NewInspector event to add the toolbar to the window. But I´m wondering if there is an easier way - like to add it by default or something during OnConnection.
One other thing.. If the right way to go about it is to use the NewInspector event, what is its dispid? (I think thats what its called ) I swear I have turned every stone in MSDN and I can´t find it! I have tried Outlook Spy as well and its not there either. Is there any resource that contains the events and their respective dispids anywhere?
Your humble COM newbie.. Glad for any help whatsoever!![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
P.S By Dispid I mean the following piece of code in SINK_MAP.
SINK_ENTRY_INFO(1, __uuidof(Outlook::ExplorerEvents),/*dispinterface*/ (This number here), OnNewInspector, &OnSimpleEventInfo)

Check the OleView. It should be there under InspectorEvents.

Hi,
I am new to COM, and hope that this question is not too stupid...
I have a MFC application.
I've added to this application a com class, where the idea is to export some services of my application to another applications.
At first I made a dialog inside my application, and then in this dialog I made an instance of my COM Object - I get all kinds of services from my application using my COM oject Interface.
But the other scenario doesn't work as expected:
I ran my application.
Then I ran another client, which makes an instance of the COM object,then when it tries to access my application services through the COM interface, it fails.
I think that the problem is that in the second scenario (out-process client) the client makes another instance of my application, without the needed initialization phase.
The question is - how can I avoid it? And make it work
Thank You for the Help!!!!
