hello, <br />
I've created an ATL project and inserted sipmple COM object into it <br />
implementing connection points - at this stage firing the events works fine. <br />
After that i made "class CDialog1 :  public CAxDialogImpl<CDialog1>" and <br />
included its .h file in the .cpp file of the COM object class . Than I've <br />
made (with DoModal) a dialog in the COM object base class and it works fine <br />
but how can i throw the events implemented in the base COM object from the <br />
dialog or how can i made conection from the dialog to the base class. <br />
The problems are <br />
1)i can't include the .h file of the base COM object class into the dialog <br />
.h file because they get nested (i've already included the dialog .h file in <br />
the base COM object .cpp - this is needed to create the dialog there) <br />
2)i can't use, lets say  CHAIN_MSG_MAP(CMyBase) in the dialog .h file <br />
because CMyBase is not defined at this stage! <br />
<br />
<br />
please help, <br />

Define an interface abstract class in the dialog header and let your dialog <br />
call into it (it is initialized with a pointer to that interface class <br />
before <br />
DoModal). Implement this abstract interface class on your COM object <br />
and pass your this pointer to the dialog before issuing DoModal. Voila! <br />
Your dialog fires notifications without knowing about your COM class <br />
a bit! <br />
<br />
<br />
BTW, an interface class looks like a COM interface, but doesn't need to <br />
derive from IUnknown: <br />
<br />
<br />
class IMyCppInterface <br />
{ <br />
public: <br />
    virtual void MyInterfaceMethod(CAnotherClass &rMyClassArg) = 0; <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
}; <br />
<br />
<br />
As you see, you are not limited with COM types altogether...
