Type Library

Type Library:

A typelib stores information about a COM object: The classid, the interfaces that the object supports, the methods on those interfaces, and so on just about everything you'd find in an IDL file.

The COM system includes a set of COM objects that lets you programmatically walk through the contents of a typelib.

1) Type Library 生成？

     1. 在IDL文件中加入library项来描述相应的组件

     2. 用MIDL编译得到相应的tlb文件

     3. 通过resource script 文件将类型库嵌入组件。       component.rc   1 TYPELIB "component.tlb"

2) Type Library 注册

• LoadTypeLibEx
• RegisterTypeLib
• UnRegisterTypeLib
• QueryPathOfRegTypeLib

3) 通过Type Library来访问组件

#define _WIN32_DCOM

#import "component.dll" no_namespace

#include <iostream.h>

void main()

{

    CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED);

    ISumPtr myRef(__uuidof(InsideCOM));

    int result = myRef->Sum(5, 13);

    cout << "5 + 13 = " << result << endl;

    myRef = NULL;

    CoUninitialize();

}
