Two different ones:

void new_function(string s)
{
// whatever
}

void new_function(string & s)
{
// whatever
}

depending on your needs.

Replace the first option by:

void new_function(const string& s)
{
// whatever
}

This achieve the same result but is more efficient: you don't duplicate the object you pass to the function. The end result is the same (and even safer) because if you were trying to modify the string (in your option), this would have no impact over the original object. With passing the object as a const reference, you ensure that what is in the fact won't try to change the object.

Do you have header and library file for the DLL. If so then include the header file and link with the library file. This[^ article have step by step instructions for how to do this.

COM unable to obtain interface -

act_x25-Apr-08 13:12

25-Apr-08 13:12

I have some COM client code that I am trying to write

IAdd *pAdd = NULL ;
IClassFactory *pClassFactory= NULL  ;
IUnknown *pUnknown = NULL ;

if (SUCCEEDED(CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED)))
{
    HRESULT res = CoCreateInstance(g_MotAutoplaycfgCLSID , NULL , CLSCTX_ALL   , IID_IUnknown , (void **)&pUnknown);
    //res = pUnknown->QueryInterface(IID_IAdd , (void **)pAdd);

     res = CoGetClassObject(g_MotAutoplaycfgCLSID , CLSCTX_ALL , NULL , IID_IClassFactory , (void **)pClassFactory );
    if(res == E_NOINTERFACE )
    {
        int x = 1;
    }
    else if(res == E_INVALIDARG)
    {
        int r = GetLastError() ;
    }
}

I can get this to retrive a valid pointer for pUnknown

HRESULT res = CoCreateInstance(g_MotAutoplaycfgCLSID , NULL , CLSCTX_ALL   , IID_IUnknown , (void **)&pUnknown);

However I am unable to obtain the interface Handle to IAdd Interface.

On the Server Side I can see that the ClassFactory class is created and that the Coclass is also instantiated.

Help is appreciated

Engineering is the effort !

You can use pUnknown->QueryInterface(.. , IAdd, ....)

I was able to modify my client code to do this

if (SUCCEEDED(CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED)))
	{
		
		HRESULT  res = CoGetClassObject(g_MycfgCLSID , CLSCTX_ALL , NULL , IID_IClassFactory , (void **)&pClassFactory );

		if(SUCCEEDED(res))
		{
			// res  = pUnknown->QueryInterface(IID_IAdd,(void **)&pAdd);
			res = pClassFactory->CreateInstance(0,IID_IAdd , (void **)&pAdd);
			pClassFactory->Release(); 
		}
		else if(res == E_NOINTERFACE )
		{
			int x = 1; 
		}
		else if(res == E_INVALIDARG)
		{
			int r = GetLastError() ; 
		}
		CoUninitialize(); 
	}

The call to

HRESULT  res = CoGetClassObject(g_MycfgCLSID , CLSCTX_ALL , NULL , IID_IClassFactory , (void **)&pClassFactory );

succeeds providing a pointer to IClassFactory

However this line

res = pClassFactory->CreateInstance(0,IID_IAdd , (void **)&pAdd);

returns the following error

#define REGDB_E_IIDNOTREG                _HRESULT_TYPEDEF_(0x80040155L)

Hey Friends

I have a search provider for which i need to create an installer

Found a way to do from webpage for internet explorer

i hope this will work for all browsers (not sure)

checked in firefox & it worked

now what i am looking at is install a search provider for all browsers using c++ or some other way in which i can create a setup & user does not have to go to the page & install the new Search Provider

and finally new Search Provider is available to all browsers.

Any idea?

You can get a good reference book, they are always handy, and start trying to make a specific program you can think of it... don't try something that is too hard, start from basic things and once you find a problem ask a specific question here and a lot of great guys will come to your help...

Be sure to post a clear and well formed question and it will be better...

Here you have plenty of articles speaking about different topics, they are separated in levels so you can find some that are for novice people.

You are welcome to this family/community... Roll eyes | :rolleyes:
