Problem on a sample code in "Windows SDK" (COM interface)?

[bahareh655]

Hi all I've built a sample code named "enrollCustomCMC" in Windows SDK at "Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Samples\Security\X509 Certificate Enrollment\VC" directory, but when the ".exe" file is built and I use it with the "Command Prompt", I see error in first "CoCreateInstance" function as "REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG" that means: "Class not registered"! I couldn't find the reason even with debugging! The code is written using COM interface, here's the code: #include #include #include #include #include #include "enrollCommon.h" void Usage() { wprintf(L"Usage:\n"); wprintf(L"enrollCustomCMC \n"); wprintf(L"Example: enrollCustomCMC Name Value "); wprintf(L"www.adatum.com 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.1\n"); } HRESULT __cdecl wmain(__in int argc, __in_ecount(argc) wchar_t *argv[]) { HRESULT hr = S_OK; bool fCoInit = false; ICertRequest2* pCertRequest2 = NULL; ICertConfig* pCertConfig = NULL; IX509Enrollment* pEnroll = NULL; IX509CertificateRequest* pRequest = NULL; IX509CertificateRequestPkcs10* pPkcs10 = NULL; IX509CertificateRequestCmc* pCmc = NULL; IX509Extensions* pExtensions = NULL; IX509Extension* pExtension1 = NULL; IX509Extension* pExtension2 = NULL; IX509ExtensionEnhancedKeyUsage* pExtensionEKU = NULL; IX509ExtensionAlternativeNames* pExtensionSAN = NULL; IObjectId *pEKUObjectId = NULL; IObjectId *pSANObjectId = NULL; IObjectIds *pEKUObjectIds = NULL; IObjectIds *pSANObjectIds = NULL; IAlternativeName * anDnsName = NULL; IAlternativeNames * pAlternativeNames = NULL; IX509NameValuePair *pPair = NULL; IX509NameValuePairs *pPairs = NULL; PCWSTR pwszName; PCWSTR pwszValue; PCWSTR pwszDnsName; PCWSTR pwszEKU; BSTR strCAConfig = NULL; BSTR strDnsName = NULL; BSTR strName = NULL; BSTR strValue = NULL; BSTR strEKU = NULL; BSTR strRequest = NULL; BSTR strCert = NULL; BSTR strDisposition = NULL; LONG pDisposition = 0; // Process command line arguments if (argc != 5) { Usage(); hr = E_INVALIDARG; _JumpError(hr, error, "invalid arg"); } else { pwszName = argv[1]; pwszValue = argv[2]; pwszDnsName = argv[3]; pwszEKU = argv[4]; } // CoInitializeEx hr = CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_MULTITHREADED); _JumpIfError(hr, error, "CoInitializeEx");

What are the setup instructions for the sample? Are the COM classes registered using regsvr32.exe?

The documentation clearly states that these API's are available starting with Windows Vista. So no XP :-(
