I am trying to call D classes from jscript.
The problem is that my knowledge in COM programming is null.
I have read some information and I guess that I have to implement the
interface IDispatch.

Where can I get more information?
Can anyone give me a clue of how to do it...

Thanks.

Miguel,

Here is a post from a few months back...

"http://www.digitalmars.com/drn-bin/wwwnews?digitalmars.D/19426"

I don't know what happened to it.  But, if you get any where with this, I would love to see your work.  I have a few JSCript that I would love to transfer to D. I could provide you with some of those, but again, they are JSCript programs.

buena suerte!

josé

Yeah, it looked like Carlos was making progress getting generic ActiveX and/or COM to work. I suspect he either ran into an obstacle or just got side-tracked into another project. It also looked like John C understood the method Carlos was using. I was looking into getting it to work for myself, but I started running into missing Windows headers and I wasn't in the mood to hunt for them or recreate them.

Me too, JCC.  I tried to compile that piece of code and got into missing headers and other things.  I would love to get a COM library that works with D.  Love to!

A bit of both, actually. It needed a bit more of the time I could give it, at the moment. There were two parts I feel should be addressed: type checking, and getting rid of VARIANTARGs in client code. If anyone wants to do it, let me know and I'll send him what I have. If it works ok, I could use it for Walnut too.

Can you send me, please.
It would be great to have ActiveX and COM working!

I know very little of COM interfaces and I doubt that I can make any progress with it... but I can try.

Miguel.

If you don't mind, I'd like a copy. I don't recall exactly what VARIANTARG's are, but maybe I can figure out how to remove them. I'd like to try to help.

I'm sending this to Justin, but I'd like to point something: I already sent the same to Miguel and previously to Robert Münch. John Chapman was also working on something similar. My proposal is, if all of you guys (and maybe even I when I have the time) are going to try to make some progress with this, how about setting up a small project in dsource just for this. All of you/us would be admins/moderators. This way, we'd avoid duplicate efforts. What do you guys think?

I've got it. Thanks.

A new project separate from Walnut? It's not that big of a project, is it?

Maybe we should just post our future developments in the Walnut forum (so it doesn't get overlooked in the expansive Digital Mars newsgroups): http://www.dsource.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=51
