In short: CComBSTR is a thin wrapper around the BSTR API, while _bstr_t is a rather thick one. By thick I mean that it wraps associated HRESULTs into exceptions.
_bstr_t is more suitable for applications, in which it's almost always possible to throw exceptions across calls. In certain scenarios however, such as in COM components, it's not advisable to do that because of threading/apartment issues (it's downright dangerous!). In such scenarios, CComBSTR is far better suitable, as it does not throw exceptions.

Hi all,
i am trying to create GUID with CoCreateGuid but it is
not creating guid.
I am working on windows XP.
ole32.lib is added in link tab.
then what is the problem?
what is wrong in this code?
#include <iostream.h>
#include<objbase.h>
int main(void)
{
HRESULT Res;
GUID *pGuid=NULL;
LPVOID pIni = NULL;
if(CoInitialize(pIni) == S_OK)
{
Res = CoCreateGuid(pGuid);
if(Res == S_OK)
{
cout<<"Created";
}
CoUninitialize();
}
return 0;
}
Thanks in advance

Its failing because you are passing a NULL pointer into CoCreateGuid(), try this instead.
<br />
GUID guid;
LPVOID pIni = NULL;<br />
<br />
if(CoInitialize(pIni) == S_OK)<br />
{ <br />
HRESULT Res = CoCreateGuid(&guid);
if(Res == S_OK)<br />
{<br />
cout<<"Created";<br />
} <br />
CoUninitialize();<br />
}<br />

how can i handling IHTMLElement event?

I am trying to create an activex object using VBScript and I want to release the object after usage. I used the following to do it:
//create
Set obj = CreateObject(SomeProgId)
//code
....
....
//release
Set obj = Nothing
The last part "Set obj = Nothing" which is supposed to release the object from the IE memory does not seem to work. Can some one help me in this regard because this looks like a generic problem that someone would have faced earlier.

There is a delay between the last reference to an in-process COM object being released and the DLL actually being unloaded. The DLL is unloaded when IE calls CoFreeUnusedLibraries(Ex). You have no control over when IE will call this API.

I have created an Activex object and registered it. I can instantiate the object in VBScript -CreateObject works fine without any problem.
However, I have noticed that if the browser (IE in this case) is not closed the object OCX file cannot be deleted and unregistered. As far as VBScript it is sufficient to set the object to "nothing" to release it, so I think there's something I need to add in the Activex code.
In the Activex object I'm also using the IObjectSafety interface the AddRef() and Release() function are added as bellow
------------------------ CODE STARTS HERE
ULONG FAR EXPORT CMyCtrl::XObjSafe::AddRef()
{
METHOD_PROLOGUE(CMyCtrl, ObjSafe)
return pThis->ExternalAddRef();
}
ULONG FAR EXPORT CMyCtrl::XObjSafe::Release()
{
METHOD_PROLOGUE(CMyCtrl, ObjSafe)
return pThis->ExternalRelease();
}
------------------------ CODE ENDS
I have a naive question: do I need to add something in the Release() function to properly delete the object? and where can I find an example of how this is done? From what I've read so far I know there is a reference count I need to maintain and check at Release() but I'm confused on where do I add this.
Any suggestions is welcome!

There's a delay between when the last reference is released and when the DLL containing the objects is unloaded. Periodically, a component host will (or should) call CoFreeUnusedLibraries(Ex). This API in turn calls your DllCanUnloadNow function. The MFC AppWizard should have implemented this function for you.
So you just have to wait for IE to call CoFreeUnusedLibrariesEx.

Hi,
Having a problem with sink and wondering if any one can help. The problem is i want revieve notifications back from a COM object (Netmeeting SDK INmCall and INmCallNotify). I assumed it would be a case of overriding INmCallNotify and replacing how it handles callbacks with how i want it to handle call backs, however this doesnt seem to be the case.
Can any one offer any light on the subject please, i have read a post about this but still am a little unsure.

Can you be more specific? Perhaps post some of your code.

Have you gone through NetMeeting SDK Documentation and samples.

I am tryng to create a C# application that will load a plugin that implements the following interface:
public interface IPlugin
{
bool OnMessage(IMessage Message);
}
I am trying to create a language independent plugin.
What do I have to do?
How do you create a type library for this interface?
I am not sure how to go about this.

I known app that use Com.
I want to spy it. How i do??
Because i don't know much about com. Dont laugh at me!!!
Another question: I always see examples about com like this
class obj{
class XI1: public interface1{
//code here
} m_x1;
..............
};
So, If my app want to use as many interface1 as i want.
How i write my com object.
Thanks

The only real way to see what's going on with an existing application that uses COM is to somehow implement a proxy object that can sit between the two existing objects. That's not at all straightforward, but I did do it once to try to understand what was going on with Pocket PC's Soft Input Panel input methods, so I could write one of my own.
The example you've illustrated is the 'nested classes' pattern of implementation. Here, every COM interface is implemented as its own function. The advantage of this style is that functions with the same name and parameters from different interfaces can be implemented differently, if required. MFC uses this pattern.
The other main pattern is the 'multiple inheritance' pattern, where your class derives from all of the interfaces. ATL uses this pattern. This style has a lot less 'glue' required. Personally I prefer it.
I'd recommend that if you're just beginning with COM, you should obtain the book "Inside COM" by Dale Rogerson (sadly, out of print).

Hey, Thank for your help. But i can't find myself "Inside com" or similar things. I'm very happy if you send me some of your book :->!!!
If possible my email: sea.loves.you@gmail.com
Thank very much.
