Passing data from any app to Visual C++ COM objects
-
Hi, I need to exchange numeric and string data between several application types (Visual Basic, VBScript in web pages...) and a Visual C++ COM object; a lot of information should be transfered in any call and simple parameter exchange looks not too smart. What should I do? XML or something else? Thanks. :) "nobody knows it, but you´ve got a secret smile, and you use it only for me"

dde still works for some apps xml is a smart extensible way to go tho depends on the frequency of the data exchanges ... if they are real time it might not be good ... then u would have to go named pipes or something
"... and so i said to him ... if it don't dance (or code) and you can't eat it either f**k it or throw it away"

You could put them into a SAFEARRAY and pass it as one argument in a VARIANT.
