COM Server/Service
-
Hi All Is it possible to develop a COM server as a/service which would start when a client instantiates an object of it? I know this is possible in theory, but I've tried doing it, by creating a Service using ATL COM Wizard and then adding an ATL Object. From the client, I tried to instantiate an object of this exposed interface. But the service does not start up and the pointer returned to me in the client is NULL. Can anyone help me provide pointers? Thanks in advance, Cheers Raja

Hi Thanks heaps ! I was trying to instantiate an instance using VC++ and CoCreateInstance. Maybe I could not get the CLSID of the class correctly. I used VB client and it works fine ! :-)) Many a thanks, However, can you tell me how to get the CLSID of a class id to use it with the CoCreateInstance. I tried CLSID<>, __uuidof <>, but no luck :-( I tried using the Smart pointers too. Cheers Raja
