Well then, as I said, use the #import "libid:library UUID" syntax

Getting crash while copying a VARIANT type to _variant_t type,

1-Sep-09 4:46

Same thing - open cdosys.dll in the OLE-COM Viewer (you'll find it either in your Visual Studio directory or in your Microsoft SDKs directory, both of which are in c:\Program Files) and look for the library's GUID.

How are you doing the copying?
If you're creating a new object you just use the constructor to do it.

VARIANT v;
_variant_t vt(v);

com interop exception with IIS webserver using in asp.net web application

30-Aug-09 13:34

(Disclaimer: I've not done this myself, it's from some knowledge of the docs).

use IShellFolder::ParseDisplayName[^] to get a shell item ID list for the folder your string refers to.
use IShellFolder::BindToObject[^] to get an IShellFolder relating to the shell item ID list for your folder.
use IShellFolder::CreateViewObject[^] to get the IShellView interface.

we are using any VB 6.0 com component through interop in asp.net web application. surprisingly it works fine
with the visual studio web server but does not work with IIS webserver. we also impersonate the machine user with highest privilages and other access permission but it still does not work and throw the COM interop exception.

Any help in this would be highly appreciated.

How to do the CoCreateInstance

26-Aug-09 21:56

How to do the CoCreateInstance,when You have only the DLL path and name
say for example I have a Dll named xyz.dll
I just #import it and register it now how I will get its Class ID to do the CoCreateInstance.
Pleae HELP

Stuart Dootson26-Aug-09 22:13

26-Aug-09 22:13

There will be a structure in the code generated by the #import statement that represents the class. You can do __uuidof(that struct) to get its CLSID. Look at the example I have here using Excel:

#import "libid:00020813-0000-0000-C000-000000000046" version("1.6") auto_search no_dual_interfaces rename("DialogBox", "excelDialogBox") rename("RGB", "excelRGB") rename("DocumentProperties", "excelDocumentProperties") rename("SearchPath", "excelSearchPath") rename("CopyFile", "excelCopyFile") rename("ReplaceText", "excelReplaceText")

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
   CoInitializeEx(0, COINIT_MULTITHREADED);
   {
      Excel::_ApplicationPtr xl;
      if (SUCCEEDED(xl.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Excel::Application)))) // This is where we get the CLSID.
      {
         // Do stuff with the application pointer
      }
   }
}

HTH!

Thank You very much
But can you please tell me that how to get the IID our we get it in the similar manner.
m_pIDocument.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Excell::IApplication));

Stuart Dootson26-Aug-09 23:07

26-Aug-09 23:07

IID? For the interface? That's determined by the interface pointer class you're using to create the instance. In my example, the IID will be the IID of Excel::_ApplicationPtr, which can be accessed using __uuidof(Excel::_ApplicationPtr), IIRC.

Hi,

I have done my code this way
hr = CoCreateInstance(__uuidof(CADFilter::NW_Document),
NULL,
CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER ,
__uuidof(CADFilter::NW_IDocument) ,
(void**)&m_pIDocument );

But the issuse is I am getting a message box getting pooped up while running the application.
And when I comment my change there is no such issue

For a start, what does the message box say?

Also - if m_pIDocument is a smart COM pointer which is of interface type NW_IDocument underneath, then this code is more idiomatically correct:

m_pIDocument.CreateInstance(__uuidof(CADFilter::NW_Document), CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER);

Hi,
Following is the code I am trying to do

#import "C:\\Program Files\\BOSS\\SUPPORT\\RealDWG\\cf2407.dll" rename_namespace("CADFilter")

AcRx::AppRetCode acrxEntryPoint (AcRx::AppMsgCode Msg,
void* AppId)
{
// local variables
int cindex;

CADFilter::NW_IDocument *m_pIDocument;
CLSID clsid;
CoInitialize (NULL);
HRESULT hr = CLSIDFromProgID(LPCOLESTR("NW_Document"), &;clsid );
hr = CoCreateInstance( clsid, NULL,CLSCTX_ALL , __uuidof(CADFilter::NW_IDocument) , (void**)&m_pIDocument );
if(SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
AfxMessageBox(_T("Hi"));
}

}But I am getting an " HRESULT hr as an "Invalid class string"

Stuart Dootson26-Aug-09 22:10

debug with /embedding setting does not work on vista

26-Aug-09 22:10

Probably means "NW_Document" isn't a valid ProgID.

Easiest way to find a class's CLSID given the DLL that contains it is probably to use the OLE-COM Object Viewer. Use the 'View Typelib' command to open the DLL. That'll display an IDL representation of the DLLs type library, including IIDs and CLSIDs.

Dear All,
I have a debug version of vc++ project.
The project result will be called by other program using COM interface.
I use "/embedding" at "Command Arguments" ( MSVC++ 2005).
It works just fine with XP..I can debug the project.
But not with Vista...the loader program will load another instance instead connecting to the one that aleady loaded in memory..
Did I miss some settings ?

Thanks..

vista security and out-of-proc COM servers

WayneS21-Aug-09 4:18

21-Aug-09 4:18

I am writing an out-of-proc COM server. I would like a single instance of my server to handle all clients. This works OK on Vista for clients running at the same privilege level. But if one client is running at normal privileges and another is running as admin, two separate instances of my server will be launched.

Is there any way to allow a single instance of my server handle all clients?

But result variable is initialize here

Sorry can you describe more.

21-Aug-09 1:30

No, this is uninitialized variable. But it doesn't help as I see the code of MFC.

So, I think that VTS_PI1 is unapplicable here. Use VTS_PUI1 or VTS_PI4.

With best wishes,
Vita

Ok i use

VTS_PUI1 or VTS_PI4.

both now error is same.
