Use this. HRESULT CoCreateInstanceEx( REFCLSID rclsid, //CLSID of the object to be created IUnknown *punkOuter, //the controlling IUnknown DWORD dwClsCtx, //CLSCTX values COSERVERINFO *pServerInfo,//Machine on which the object is to be instantiated ULONG cmq, //Number of MULTI_QI structures in pResults MULTI_QI *pResults //Array of MULTI_QI structures ); Cheers, Anand ;)

Just more Info for you. In C++, TRUE is +1, but VB and automation clients use TRUE as -1 and FALSE as +1. If you use BOOL, all you can see is clouds of confusion over your application. so use VARIANT_BOOL(boolean type), VARIANT_TRUE(true),VARINAT_FALSE(false) Whenever you are using C++(COM), you should avoid using bool, BOOL in your application. Cheers, Anand:-D

Usually Events in COM are a kind of painful. these were designed for in- process DLLs. Each event takes 5 round trips from source to sink to complete its duty. Just imagine, how much load on the network due to these round trips.. If you have 8- 10 events.........think.. 40-50 round trips( calls) I will come up with more info.wait.. Cheers, Anand.

I got the same problem. you need to have .NET on target machine. http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp?url=/downloads/sample.asp?url=/msdn-files/027/001/829/msdncompositedoc.xml. try to download this and have fun. - Anand :)

I tried (5 times)to attach CAB file, but no luck.. Its not giving any error, but simply ignores what you doing..

Just to share with you guys, Hotmail is not accepting CAB file as an attachment. Anybody tried? -Anand

Hi, I am trying to run my C# application on different machine by copying executable. I am getting this error. " A required, MSCOREE.DLL, was not found". Can some one guide me how to deploy.?(FYI: I am creating Cab Project and set up project) Any restrictions on target machine for deployment.?:confused: Thanks, Anand.

I think ONE. ( may be this approach can help us) As we know , this the way of accessing member variables( state of the class) through methods(get,set) without breaking the client code. Often memeber variables (State) need to be computed.(ex: get and set to/from DB),then this way of accessing will be useful. I think this the trade-off.(If we really wasting space) Check your MSIL using ILDASM.exe( NET FWk/SDK/ bin). in your example, NAME is property and name is member variable. Next, value is implicit parameter for "set" method CLR reads your program as set(value) { membervariable = value; } Thanks, Anand.

How to solve "System.StackOverflowException" I am getting this, when I try to set a value to memeber variable. namespace StackOverFLow { /// /// Summary description for Class1. /// class StFlow { /// /// The main entry point for the application. /// [STAThread] static void Main(string[] args) { StFlow STF = new StFlow(); STF.Name = "CodeProject"; string str = STF.Name; } public string Name { get { return Name; } set { Name = value; } } } } Thanks, Candy
