Introduction

Just a simple try for studying COM(Component Object Model).

The original article is here.

And we could find the original codebase here or another changed version here.

I made some adjustments so that we could use cmake to compile this project.

Take it easy to study COM and have fun!

How-to-Use

First, you can use midl.exe to compile IAdd.idl file,

midl.exe .\IAdd.idl

then, you can run powershell script to compile these source files,

.\lcompile.ps1

then, we need to register our dll file generated during last step,

regsvr32.exe .\build64\Debug\AddObj.dll

note: here we need run register32 command in Administrator mode, you can simply use scoop tu install gsudo and run sudo to enter Administrator mode.

then, cd test, and run lcompile.ps1, then, execute the exe file,

.\build64\Debug\comtest.exe

output:

Output after adding 100 & 200 is 300.
