Done that, there aren't any missing. I'd get a LoadModule failure if a dll was missing.

Have found the problem now - atl.dll was not registered!

Hi,
I'm trying to paste clipboard content in an outlook message window (new mail/reply) from an outlook addin (when a button is pushed)
I'm using VC++ 6, and the addin is based on several good articles from codeproject.
I was able to create a button in the message window, but I didn't found a way to paste content in this window through the Office API.
So I used SPY++ to get the structure of an Outlook message window and sent a WM_PASTE event to the body control handle. (Using Active window, FindWindowEx and SendMessage)
This works fine for text and rich text emails ('RichText20' window class), but I can't make it work for HTML mails (Window class is 'Internet Explorer_Server').
Since WM_PASTE event was not working, I managed to get an IHTMLDocument2 pointer on this control and tried to use execCommand( _T( "Paste" ) , ...) but nothing happens. On the contrary, when I use execCommand( _T( "SelectAll"), ... ), it works.
I'm running out of ideas on this, so i'm looking for hints.
Basically , I only want to insert text/links at the cursor position.
I think that if I can get an IWebBrowser2 pointer for this control, I should by able to send the event using execWB (I already did it in IE)
How Internet Server_Explorer handles Ctrl-C events ? Is it using another control ?
Do you know a better way to do this ?
Thanks

Hi again,
I found the solution.
I use Outlook::_Application to get the active inspector
I'm then able to get the editor type and the HTML editor in a clean way.
An interface query on the html editor gives an IHTMLDocument.
Insertion is done using get Selection and IHtmlTxtRange. (see http://starkravingfinkle.org/blog/2005/01/)

I heard Mac OS suports COM. Is that true? Do unix ,linux or QNX support COM or COM is just a binary standard on windows?

Hi,
I have developed a MFC ActiveX control and embeded it in IE. The control is working fine but when another instance of IE is opened using Ctrl+N, I am getting ASSERT exception in debug mode and in Release mode IE crashes.
Note that if the second instance is opened without using Ctrl+N (i.e by using explorer icon) no exception arrises.
what could be wrong. your support is highly appreciated.
Thanks

You've obviously got a problem with your control when more than one instance of it is created. This is probably a threading issue since IIRC Internet Explorer creates a new thread for each browser window. If your control is marked apartment-threaded (which it is, by default), then the second instance of your control will be running on a different thread from the first.
When a second instance is opened by using the icon, a new IEXPLORE.EXE process is created. This gives a whole new address space, so the problem does not occur.
It might help diagnose the problem if you post the file and line number on which the ASSERT occurs.

Thanks a Lot Mike, your answer has given me a new dimension to think. first of all i need to know 2 things
1. what is
Mike Dimmick wrote: IIRC Internet Explorer
and what it does?
2. how co i know whether my control is
Mike Dimmick wrote: marked apartment-threaded
and is the problem due to the fact that you wrote:
Mike Dimmick wrote: your control is marked apartment-threaded (which it is, by default), then the second instance of your control will be running on a different thread from the first.
yes the line where i am getting the Assert is, when i try to access Frame window ( that i have created in my control) using AfxGetApp()->m_pMainFrame or AfxGetMainWnd().
thanks once again for your response

This is the first time I've worked with an OCX in C and I'm having trouble getting it to run. I'm trying to use a barcode control[^]. This is not a visual application, there's no gui, I'm using it to print barcodes.
I used the class wizard to import it, it created an ezbarx32.h/cpp. I seem to be able to successfully create it using
COleException tvExerror;
_DBarcode Barcode;
if (!(Barcode.CreateDispatch("EZBARX32.BarcodeCtrl.2", &tvExerror)))
{
char tvBuf[10];
itoa(tvExerror.m_sc, tvBuf, 10);
throw CEMException(CString("CreateDispatch() failed! - ") + tvBuf);
}
but as soon as I try to call a method
Barcode.SetBarcodeType(22);
I get an un-handled exception. Debuging into it I find that this call in the libraries
SCODE sc = m_lpDispatch->Invoke(dwDispID, IID_NULL, 0, wFlags,
&dispparams, pvarResult, &excepInfo, &nArgErr);
returns 0x8000ffff in sc which causes the error checking code after it to report an exception.
Anyone know what I might be missing? I know the control works, it's used in some programs in other languages without any problems.

Spot the keyword enum. This is an enumerated type. IDL follows the C syntax - enums live in a separate namespace from the standard types, so you must use enum foo rather than just foo when using them. To work around this, virtually every enum you'll ever see is put in a typedef declaration to create a type name in the global type namespace. A Microsoft extension to C allows the name of the enum itself to be omitted if you do the typedef in the same declaration as the enum itself, and again this has carried over to IDL.
The [uuid] and [version] attributes are attached to the enum declaration, not the typedef itself. Enumerated types must have GUIDs the same as everything else. You can modify an enumeration without changing the GUID as long as you only add new values; you cannot delete existing ones or renumber them.

Hi mike,
i got it... i guess this is what i understood of this before i put up a post... but then why does the compiler give me an error saying that i need to add a type specifier before the datatype? can you suggest any changes in the idl file...
thanks

 Try using
tempButton->Style=Office::msoButtonIconAndCaption;
tempButton->Caption="Hello";
tempButton->FaceId=67;
Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

Thanks man,
I have the idea about it... but this work only for the faceid's provided by Outlook itself..
I want to add custom face to the button using the picture and mask i created.
Thanks for instant reply.

Hi use this one:
void SetBitmap(CComQIPtr<office::_commandbarbutton>tempButton,const int& imageId)
{
CComQIPtr < Office::_CommandBarButton> spButton(tempButton);
ATLASSERT(spButton);
bool transparence;
HBITMAP hBmp =(HBITMAP)::LoadImage(_Module.GetResourceInstance(),
MAKEINTRESOURCE(imageId),IMAGE_BITMAP,0,0,NULL);
// put bitmap into Clipboard
::OpenClipboard(NULL);
::EmptyClipboard();
::SetClipboardData(CF_BITMAP, (HANDLE)hBmp);
::CloseClipboard();
::DeleteObject(hBmp);
// set style before setting bitmap
spButton->PutStyle(Office::msoButtonIconAndCaption);
HRESULT hr = spButton->PasteFace();
spButton->PutVisible(VARIANT_TRUE);
}

Hello everybody,
I have registered some ActiveX controls on my machine (bought a SDK from a customer which works fine in their HTML web-test-page).
I have created a Visual Studio C++ new ActiveX server like this :
File / New / New ATLCOM AppWizard
Insert / New ATL object / Single object / Single threading model
Now I have my own ActiveX Server, everything's great, compiling and all.
===> BUT in this/my ActiveX I would like to add "the" ActiveX from my customer sold me (name IQViewX class)
I open :
Project / Add to project / Components and controls / Registered ActiveX Controls
but I don't see anything !
Whereas in the "OLE-COM object Viewer" I can see the QViewX class !
How can I add everything I need into my project ?
Thanks alot,
ptiJean

Hi,
As far as i Know the ActiveX control that you have bought from your customer is a liscensed ActiveX control, means that you can't use this control in your applications.
Only those persons who have .lic file of this control can use the control in their applications.
since you might not have .lic file so you can only see this control in your customer's built application and you can't built an application, making use of the control.
I guess this answers you

Hello,
I'm trying to use a Dll file in form of COM.
The dll file is of a commercial application and doesn't have the .tlb file.
I tried to use #import directive in order to use 'smart pointers'.
the compiler throws many errors regarding incorrect syntax in .tlh and .tli files....
Alough it reads in MSDN that #import directive can take .dll files...
has anybody got an idea?
|
|
|
|
|
|
#import can take .DLL if it follows COM and has a TLB within its Resource.
On MSDN, check for the attributes to be used along with #import

Thanks guys!
The MSDN doesn't note that, nor Dr. Gui....
anyway I don't have any documentation regarding the DLL, so I decided to leave it for now, till I get some information about it...

Hi,
I wrote a class that is using A COM object. I'm also using the COM interface method which is sending the data to COM object and work with them. The problem is that I run the loop which sends the data all the time. To avoid crushing application Form(I think that this infinite loop blocks message loop) i run the loop in thread. But then I get exception "Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type..." Can you give me any advice what can I do whith it?
