I am working on an in-house "phone book" application. I want to add the functionality such that if the user double clicks on an email address within the program, it will bring up an Outlook mail message with that address as the recipient (Outlook being the default mail package here; I'm not going to worry about anything else at this point).
I am totally new to COM and know generally what I need to do (call CoCreateInstance on the email message class, whatever that may be). However, I am having a very hard time figuring out exactly which CLSID/IID to use to pull up the application. Any help for this newbie would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried looking into MAPI?

Just posted an article on writing an Outlook2K addin with ATL. Maybe you might find it interesting read when in gets published in a few days? Also lookup MSDN for Outlook object model info and related code and articles. You might also find the outlook.addin useful at the msnews.micorosft.com newsgroup. I certainly did.

Does anybody have any idea how can I read the MS DTC log file ? I have found on MSDN a reference about a tool named "msdtcvtr.exe" which converts from the DTC log file to a text file, but I can't find that tool anywhere ... Not between DTC files, nor in Platform SDK or whatever. Thanks.

Hi All,
I have made simple COM componenet using ATL. having methods do_a(),
do_b(). Now I have added a dialog resource using Insert->ATL Object in COM
and added a button on that dialog , I want to call methods of COM do_a() on
the click event of that button. Can any one tell me how i do this ? Its
about getting the running com pointer in the dialog.
Thanking you.
Rizi.

I guess you have to use Createinstance() or smart pointer to initialize your copmonent in your dialog class and then use your methods

Hello All,
I want to register and unregister the components in MTS/COM+ environment programmatically. I know that the components registered with regsvr32 will be residing at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. But I don't know how MTS/COM+ keeps hold of the components reference. I can go with COM+ export feature so that it'll give me one msi file. But I want some alternatives.
Can anyone help me? Timely help appreciated!
with Advance Thanks,
Ramesh.

Heya,
check out the "COMAdmin.COMAdminCatalog" object (there is a similar for MTS)
/WW
ex:
Set oCatalog = CreateObject("COMAdmin.COMAdminCatalog")
oCatalog.RefreshComponents
' Register the component (overwrites existing)
Call oCatalog.InstallComponent("MyApplication","MyDLL.dll","","")

Hi all,
I know this is probably a stupidly simple question but if anyone can give me an answer or point me to a tutorial I'd appreciate it.
I have created a COM object that plays animation files. What I need to be able to so is talk to the object from the server to play the next frame etc.
How do I reference the COM object so I can use one of it's methods?
Am I looking at this all wrong?
Cheers for the help.
James.

1.import your dll into your project(you can do it in stdafx.h):
#import"F:\ProjectVC++\ComTest0\Debug\ComTest0.dll" no_namespace
2.compile stdafx.cpp,then put two file with .tli,.tlh in your "DLL" directory
3. CoInitialize(NULL);
{
ITestComPtr pTest;
HRESULT hr=pTest.CreateInstance(__uuidof(TestCom));
if(SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
pTest->....
}
}
::CoUninitialize();
I hope it was clear for you

There is other way of communicating with the component.
Let
Component:CMyComponent.
Interface:IMyInterface.
Now the code goes trhis way(inside the main if client is console else other suitable function.)
************************************************************
CoInitialize(NULL);
HRESULT hr=CoCreateInstance(CLSID_CMyComponent,NULL,CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER/*Depends*/,IID_IMyInterface,(void**)&pMyInterface); //pMyInterface is a
pointer to interface.
pMyInterface->....
CoUninitialize();
************************************************************
Let me know if u understood.

Is this a dump of memory leaks? If so, read on...
118 is the line in strcore.cpp where the memory-leaking block was allocated. The best way to track down these bugs (without BoundsChecker or similar) is using _crtBreakAlloc in the VC++ debugger.
Search MSDN for "HOWTO: Use _crtBreakAlloc to Debug a Memory Allocation" for more info, but basically you start the debugger, set _crtBreakAlloc to equal the second number (3409 or 3408) in the lines above, and then run. When the memory that is leaking is allocated, the debugger will break and show you where.
Good luck.

My client is written in Visual Basic and my server is an ATL DLL written in VIsual C++. Why the dialog does not get displayed?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Exception (kernel32.dll): 0xC000008F: Float Inexact Result
Any clues to what this is?
I'm creating some threads & using MFC Wininet APIs, but this would happen before i switched to MFC Wininet APIs too!
The thing is, i'm not doing any division, multiplication, or declaring any floats!
Any help is "way" appreciated.. thanks!

The exception code is a standard code when using a VB6 component within a process. However, all those exceptions should be handled and not fall into MFC. Andy idea if a VB6 component is loaded into the process?

Hello,
I have the following problem:
I'm saving and reading certain types of SafeArrays. Until now I relied among other things to SafeArrayGetVarType. I tested things with SafeArrayCreateVector and everything worked fine. Now, few months later I begin to get safeArrays created with SafeArrayCreateVector that don't have FADF_HAVEVARTYPE set (Feature flag is 0x2000). I have some hints that something updated my OLEAUT32.dll but I don't know what. I tried to use both SafeArrayCreate and SafeArrayCreateVectorEx, and with them I get feature flag that has only FADF_HAVEVARTYPE set - as it used to be - with one discrepancy from MSDN documentation. MSDN says (SafeArrayCreateVectorEx): "The FADF_HAVEIID can be set for VT_DISPATCH or VT_UNKNOWN and FADF_HAVEVARTYPE can be set for all other types."
But when I try to add FADF_HAVEVARTYPE to vt parameter of SACreateVectorEx the array isn't created at all - if I leave vt as it was array is created and has the correct vartype set.
Does anybody know which version of OLEAUT32.dll changed behaviour of SACreateVector? And what can I do without requesting that all of my clients use SACreateVectorEx or SACreate instead of SACreateVector?
