Of course, that's part of the whole idea with an ActiveX control since an ActiveX control is in fact a DLL encapsulating with one or more COM objects with automation interfaces and usually a GUI.

Why? It doesn't make sense.
It would be like being forced to start Word to be able to perform a spell check in Outlook.
What are you trying to do and how can the above be a problem?

Hi Roger,
I have a custom server(OCX) which samples data from a D/A hardware through a container application. I want to be able to have 1 container application, that have many server objects sampling data from multiple hardware. When I create the first instance of the server object, it connects and samples, when I create the instance of the second server object, it connects, but the previous object is no longer sampling. When I call a method from the first server object to start sampling, the second object begins sampling. I'm a little confused? Any ideas?
Regards,

I don't know what kind of hardware you're using or how your server is implemented.
However, I suspect the server to some kind of functionality to be able to select which hardware to use where you provide an index or some string to identify the hardware, e.g. "COM1". Otherwise you would not be able to use multiple hardware, which may actually be the fact, in theory, if the server is badly designed.
Regarding the fact that your first instance of the server stops sampling when you create a second server could mean a lot of things. One could be that both servers are using the same hardware because both servers use some kind of default hardware index or similar.
Without more information about your server's interface at least, it's not possible to help you further. Besides from guessing about how it should work...
Code snippets of how you create your server and what hardware you're using would be nice, as well.

Hi Roger,
I think I found the problem. I have global pointer to the Server Object class and this global pointer points to this object during creation. Whenever I create a new instance of the Server object, the global pointer is re-assigned and pointed to the new object. How can I avoid this? Is there a way not to make the pointer global. I do need access to the Server Object via this pointer.
Thanks

Is creating an Office COM addin using ATL with Late Binding possible? Most of the examples in CodeProject use Early Binding. Using #import to import the libraries means that Early Binding is used, isn't it?
Well, I want to create an ATL Office Addin but with Late Binding. Is this possible? If possible, could anyone guide me.
Thanks.

I don't clear what you want but i think you wanna to load the addin when you want it
in the addin .rgs file we have the addin dll registration having option LoadBehavior where you can specify your possible loading behaviors

Greetings,
I am building a VB.NET dll to respond to the click event of a custom button added to IE's toolbar. In response to the button click the .dll will print the current page to a specific printer without the user needing to choose it from the print dialog.
I am implementing the IObjectWithSite interface to handle acquiring a reference to the browser. And I am implementing the IOLECommandTarget interface in order to receive the click notification via the Exec method.
If I set up the registry entries under "Browser Helper Objects" my .dll is being properly instantiated by IE when it loads, and I am successfully acquiring a reference to the browser with "wb = CType(pUnkSite, SHDocVw.IWebBroswer2)" in the SetSite method of IObjectWithSite.
However, upon clicking the custom toolbar button, the SetSite method is apparently called again, and I encounter the following error when attempting to acquire the broswer reference:
Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'SHDocVw.IWebBrowser2'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{D30C1661-CDAF-11D0-8A3E-00C04FC9E26E}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)).
Any ideas on why this is happening?
Thanks

I use CoCreateInstance(...) to create an instance of a COM/ATL DLL that I wrote, then use obj->Release() when done with it. During development I discover the only way to remove it from memory is to reboot! Is there a better way? I cannot replace the dll when its in use.
thanks

Can anyone explain what the macro _COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF does?

When you declare a code like below or when compiler generates such a code for you because of the #import statement:
_COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF(ICustomInterface, __uuidof(ICustomInterface));
Compiler will expand this macro _COM_SMARTPTR_TYPEDEF into:
typedef _com_ptr_t<_com_IIID<ICustomInterface, __uuidof(ICustomInterface)> > ICustomInterfacePtr;
Then in Ur code u can use ICustomInterfacePtr as
ICustomInterfacePtr pICustomInterface(__uuidof(CustomInterface) ); // where CustomInterface is the CoClassname for ICustomInterface.
This pICustomInterface is equivalent of ICustomInterface* with the added advantage of auto addref and release. You don’t have to bother anything about the IUnknown method invocations for ICustomInterface*

hi all
Following error occur in my atl com project.this project is using both the atl and mfc classes.Tool is visual studio 2003.
d:\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vc7\atlmfc\include\atlcom.h(1759): error C2259: 'ATL::CComObject<base />' : cannot instantiate abstract class
with

I think the error has to do with implementing all the virtual functions etc. So I would suggest:
Make sure you are implementing all the virtual methods of the base class. Also make sure that the function signatures are exactly the same.
Could you post some of the relevant "Output" from the compilation. That could tell us what the error is.
this is this.

Hi,
I am working on Media File Steam Edition, and want to cut a file into many, and join two files. I am using DirecX9 SDK. I tried hard, but cant go on further with my own knowledge.
Can any knowledged person guide me for the same. I was working on .avi files, but now am thinking of .wmv files.
Any thing that can help me do the coding for joining and cutting media files will do.
Thanks,

CComObject::CreateInstance method creates new instance of CComObject<class>. Instead I want to access running instance of class, if there is any. Is it possible?

Try to use QueryInterface to that class

Y, it is one way. But I want to get instance of coclass. ie.
CComObject<CMyClass>::CreateInstance
creates new instance .
Instead I want running instance if there is already one .
May be this is not possible

Let me be reword my problem.
In ATL , class CComObject has a static method CreateInstance which gives A pointer to a CComObject<Base> pointer
In similar way , is it possible to get pointer to a running CComObject<Base> ?
I'm pasting snippet from MSDN to make it more clear.
double x;
CComObject<CMyCircle>* pCircle;
HRESULT hRes = CComObject<CMyCircle>::CreateInstance(&pCircle);
_ASSERTE(SUCCEEDED(hRes));

May be Running Object Table (ROT) will help you. Check MSDN for further details of its usage.
Have a great day ahead!

I have not yet been able to test this, but I'm hoping others may shine some light on this:
Does the 64bit COM subsystem understand InprocServer64 registry keys?
|
|
|
|
|
Read Registry Redirector (Windows) and other related pages.
The basic answer is yes and no.
InProcServer32 is not reflected between 64 and 32 bit DLL registration so they can co-exist.
