DETAILS
Good day..
I know it's quite a long shot, but I have this problem.. And I've ran out of places to ask for help for..
I am supposed to make my webbrowser control scroll depending on what scrollType I pass. Well, everything worked fine... that is, in IE6.
My code crashes in IE7 at get_parentWindow, get_scrollHeight (and perhaps also in scrollBy). They all return access violations.
Trying other solutions on the net didn't help, IE7 still crashes with calling functions (like get_scrollTop and etc)... I already tried scrolling using IHTMLElement2. But no luck... I also tried IHTMLDocument3->get_documentElement and used that for scrolling, still... no sunshine in sight.
Is this an IE thing? or are there settings I failed to look at? Does anyone know by chance a way to work around this? it's really not good to just restrict users from using my scrolling functions if they don't use ie6.
i am kinda desperate now.
will be forever grateful for the help.

Hello
I have this program which uses a COM DLL.
On one computer all works fine.
On another machine, coinitialize keeps returning 3 and fails.
Anybody seen this return code before?
Thanks

Are you sure about the returned HRESULT?
According to the CoInitialize Function (COM)[^], the possible results could be the ones below (see A lot of HRESULT codes...[^] for their numeric values):
E_INVALIDARG = 0x80070057 = -2147024809E_OUTOFMEMORY = 0x8007000E = -2147024882E_UNEXPECTED = 0x8000FFFF = -2147418113S_OK = 0x00000000 = 0S_FALSE = 0x00000001 = 1RPC_E_CHANGED_MODE = 0x80010106 = -2147417850
Then it seems that 3 is not a possible result; not only, I was not able to find a description for it anyway, according to Interpreting HRESULT Values[^], such a value doesn't indicates a failure (because the most significant bit is not set).
In your application are you testing for specific values or are you using the SUCCEEDED() macro? When using COM is preferable to always use that macro to distinguish between success and failure...

I know that and I haven't been able to find this code either.
3 is supposed to be a success code (bit 0 == 0), but apparently it is not.
I am using SUCCEEDED, but the program kept failing further down the line, so I ran it thru the debugger and this is the HRESULT CoInitialize() returns.

Hi,
I would like to know that how to get the list of methods in OCX and how to invoke the particular method with the input parameters?
|
|
|
|
|
An OCX is nothing but a COM component.
To access COM methods in managed code, you must do COM interop.
|
|
|
|

Can anybody help me programatically using COM components to get the solution for converting any type of document to PDF format
we already tried through this coding:
public static void ConverWordToPDF(string Filepath, string Targetpath)
{
object Unknown = Type.Missing;
object Source = Filepath;
object Target = Targetpath;
ApplicationClass MSdoc = new ApplicationClass();
try
{
MSdoc.Visible = false;
MSdoc.Documents.Open(ref Source, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown);
MSdoc.Application.Visible = false;
MSdoc.WindowState = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdWindowState.wdWindowStateMinimize;
object format = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdSaveFormat.wdFormatPDF;
MSdoc.ActiveDocument.SaveAs(ref Target, ref format,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
log.Info("Converted Word to PDF", e);
}
finally
{
if (MSdoc != null)
{
MSdoc.Documents.Close(ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown);
}
MSdoc.Quit(ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown);
}
}
Normally in while runing this application in local its working fine in XP System:
while run through IIS i getting the following error:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800A11FD):
===================
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800A11FD):
This method or property is not available because a document window is not active.
at Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Documents.Close(Object& SaveChanges,
Object& OriginalFormat, Object& RouteDocument)
Can anybody suggest me how to resolve it or any new solution for conversion process
Thanks

Hi. I am a physicist. I am trying to work with an imported activex control (ocx file) on Delphi. There are 3 automation interfaces in the library: IGraph, IGraphAxes and IAxis. The structure of the library is such that:
===IGraph’s properties:===
Idispatch* IGraphAxes;
... //other members
===IGraphAxes’ properties:===
Idispatch* XAxis;
Idispatch* YAxis;
Idispatch* ZAxis;
integer Color;
integer Style;
… //other members
===IAxis properties:===
float Min, Max;
Boolean ShowNumbers;
… //other members
From IGraph, I am able to get an access to simple members of IGraphAxes (Color and Style) using GetIDsOfNames() and Invoke() functions. But when I try to get an access to XAxis (or YAxis, Zaxis) it generates an error. First, I use GetIDsOfNames() and it returns the dispid of XAxis without any problem. But when I call Invoke with that dispid there is an error “Access violation at address …”. It seems, the idispatch pointer Xaxis points to nothing. How can I solve this? How to make
Idispatch* Xaxis
and
IAxis interface attached to each other (or how to make idispatch* XAxis point to IAxis)?
Thanks in advance.

Not sure how exactly to get it done in Delphi, but the normal procedure to get one interface pointer from a method in another is to use QueryInterface with the IID of the new interface.

Hi. Thanks for your reply. Actually the activex control is a third-party visual component for plotting some 3d graphics. When I import the ocx file into Delphi, it appears on the ActiveX tab of the Component Palette. I just drag it with mouse and put on a form and an object
Graph1: TGraph;
is automatically added to my code. Its properties and events become visible in the Object Inspector window. Now I want to get an access to the control’s axes from my code. As you can see, the property <Idispatch * IGraphAxes> represents coordinate axes. Also I guess that IGraphAxes’ XAxis/YAxis/ZAxis members are idispatch pointers of type IGraphAxis. I wrote the following procedures to access an idispatch interface:
procedure TForm2.GetProperty(dispobj: IDispatch; PropertyName: WideString;
var retvalue: Variant; Sender: TObject);
var hr: HRESULT;
DispId: integer;
value: Variant;
params: TDispParams;
begin
hr:=dispobj.GetIDsOfNames(GUID_NULL,@PropertyName, 1, LOCALE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT, @DispId);
Label1.Caption:=inttostr(DispId);
hr:=dispobj.Invoke(DispId,GUID_NULL,LOCALE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT,DISPATCH_PROPERTYGET,
Params,@Value,nil,nil);
Retvalue:=Value;
Label2.Caption:=inttostr(value);
end;
procedure TForm2.SetProperty(dispobj: IDispatch; PropertyName: WideString; Value: OLEVariant;
Sender: TObject);
var
hr: HRESULT;
DispId: integer;
params: TDispParams;
begin
hr:=dispobj.GetIDsOfNames(GUID_NULL,@PropertyName,1, LOCALE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT, @DispId);
Label1.Caption:=inttostr(DispId);
params.rgvarg:=@Value;
params.rgdispidNamedArgs:=@DispIDArgs;
params.cArgs:=1;
params.cNamedArgs:=1;
hr:=dispobj.Invoke(DispId,GUID_NULL,LOCALE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT,
DISPATCH_PROPERTYPUT,Params,nil,nil,nil);
end;
They work fine with Color and Style properties of IGraphAxes:
GetProperty(Graph1.GraphAxes, 'Color', retvalue, Sender);
Or
SetProperty(Graph1.GraphAxes, 'Color',value,Sender);
But how to get full access to XAxis/YAxis/ZAxis members of IGraphAxes?

Hello Altankhuu,
>> First, I use GetIDsOfNames() and it returns the dispid of XAxis without any problem. But when I call Invoke with that dispid there is an error “Access violation at address …”.
The sequence should be :
IGraph.GetIDsOfNames() to obtain dispid of IGraphAxes property.
IGraph.Invoke() (with above dispid) to obtain IDispatch* of IGraphAxes.
IGraphAxes.GetIDsOfNames() to get dispid of XAxis.
IGraphAxes.Invoke() (with above dispid) to obtain IDispatch* of XAxis.
You then call GetIDsOfNames() and Invoke() on the returned XAxis IDispatch pointer.

Please do not post the same question in more than one forum.
It's time for a new signature.

I'm developing a COM object in a dll. The object takes an IUnknown** parameter.
interface IPasser : IDispatch{
[id(1), helpstring("method Pass")]
HRESULT Pass([in]IUnknown* ptr);};
When using it in-process I can send NULL as parameter, but when I instantiate the com object usign a surrogage usign CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER I get an error message 0x800706f4, "A null reference pointer was passed to the stub."
IPasserPtr obj;
IUnknown* ptr;hr = obj.CreateInstance (CLSID_Passer, 0, CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER);
hr = obj->raw_Pass (0);
hr = obj->raw_Pass (&ptr);
This is only a problem when I use double indirection, not when I use an ordinary IUnknown*.
Can anyone tell me why this is not allowed and how to change the implementation to be able to send a NULL pointer.

You said it yourself - the raw method expects a pointer to a pointer - that's why passing a NULL results in an invalid argument error code. You need to pass a pointer to a null for this to work (you actually have the solution in your question).
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks for the response.
To clarify a bit. The parameter is used to return a COM pointer.
If the caller don't need the value, it sends NULL.
So my implementation has the following construction
if (ptr != 0) {
*ptr = something;
*ptr->AddRef ();
}
This i not uncommon in C++ programming, but for some resaon its problematic in COM.
|
|
|
|
|
I think this[^] might be the answer you need. Apparently the COM object going out of proc causes a problem if the pointer is null. Try declaring the pointer as unique - read more in the article I linked to.

Thanks for a very interesting link.
Though, I was not able to reproduce the behavior, even with the code in the article.
Even if I put, unique or ptr as attribute to my parameter ([in, string, unique]) I get the same error code.
I can pass a IUnknow* with 0 as value, both with unique and ref (which should be impossible), but a wchar_t* cannot be passed, regardless of the unique attribute or not.

Hi,
Does any one know when is this "WSACancelBlockingCall" called.
I am facing a very strange problem with this. We have a editor to write our scripts, one of the script captures a window rectangle and send it to a COM api to get the text from the image. We use FineReader as the OCR tool which is on a different server.
The problem is when we run the script through the editor it returns the correct result. However we have another script which can run the scripts in batch files, when run through this, the socket to the sever returns "WSACancelBlockingCall"
Following is the code:
CSocket RecvSockSrv;
RecvSockSrv.Create(nPort);
RecvSockSrv.Listen();
CSocket RecvSock;
//**************************************************************************************
SocketData data;
data.socket=&RecvSockSrv;
data.event = CreateEvent(NULL,FALSE,FALSE,NULL);
if (data.event==NULL)
{
// Error
}
data.nTimeOut = 15000; // Set TimeOut to 15 seconds
DWORD threadID;
HANDLE threadHandle = CreateThread(NULL,0,&ThreadFunc,&data,0,&threadID);
if (threadHandle==NULL)
{
// error during thread creation
}
int returnVal;
returnVal = RecvSockSrv.Accept(RecvSock); // Returns non zero when run through editor and 0 when the script is used.
Can anyone pls help me with this.. I want to know under wht circumstances the call is blocked with "WSACancelBlockingCall".
Thanks in advance for any help

I have a COM dll, the dll expose a method BOOL Open(const wchar_t* filename, OUT std::vector<MyStruct>& dataout);
The function 'Open' take the parameter filename, to open the file, and construct the data from the file to pass it out to outside world.
But of course the client crash in runtime because the CRT problem, I googled and the link give me answer, http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vclanguage/thread/83a026d8-09b1-4d57-8c4a-ab2d139624b4[^]
So if I don't want pass STL vector as out parameter, then How can I design my COM dll to deal with such situation(open read the file and pass out the data)?

You can check if a safe array helps instead of vector.

Hello,
I'm new to Ole Programming.
I'm calling this method on an IOleObject because I want to insert a copy of this object into the very same IRichEditOle where I took it from.
hr = reObject.poleobj->GetClipboardData(0, &dataObject);
hr is OLE_E_NOTRUNNING after this call ("Need to run the object to perform this operation.")
reObject is a REOBJECT structure that I get from iterating through the objects the Rich Edit contains (three images).
Does anyone know what the issue is and how I can solve it?
Thanks and best regards,
Gabriel

I am having trouble with some objects. I'm getting access violations when trying to use some of the methods in the object, which I think is due to not initializing the object when I create it..but there's the problem, I can't use the new operator to create it because it complains about virtual functions. Here's the different ways I've tried to initialize it
1:
IDgnWords words = new IDgnWords() ;
Errors (some of them anyway):
error C2259: 'IDgnWords' : cannot instantiate abstract class due to following members:
warning C4259: 'unsigned long __stdcall IUnknown::AddRef(void)' : pure virtual function was not defined
2:
IDgnWords* words ;
words->Dump( CComBSTR("C:\\words.txt") ) ;
Error: Access Violation when reaching the Dump function
3:
CComPtr<IDgnWords> words ;
words->Dump( CComBSTR("C:\\words.txt") ) ;
Error: Run Time error. No message box pops up, but I can't step any further in the code while debugging.
The class has no initialize functions so and I think this is where I'm having trouble. Is there something I should be doing to initialize the objects?
