[platform-swt-dev] Re: Active X and SWT - Failed to create Ole Client er

[Duong Nguyen <duongn@xxxxxxxxxx>]

You have to know the name of the DLL
where the class resides. Then you can use the regsvr32 command to register
the dll.

Try using regedit to look up the PROG_ID
that you're using. For example "Word.Document" can be found in
"My Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Word.Document". You may be able
to find out where the dll is located.

Can you run the application outside
of SWT? If yes, it may not be a registration problem.

Thanks Duong!

It is probably because of improper registration.
But how do I register the class?
I tried looking for the .ocx control so that I could regsiter it manually
but did not find it.

Hello Everyone,

I had automated a software using its OLE automation Interface support for
OLE clients.
I used Active X support provided in SWT.

Now we are upgrading to a newer version of the software and  facing
problem 
automating it.

When I replace the older version program_id with the newer version:

OleControlSite controlSite = new OleControlSite(frame, SWT.NONE
,SOFTWAREXYZ_NEW_PROGID);

I get this excption thrown - 
org.eclipse.swt.SWTException: Failed to create Ole Client. result =
-2147221164

    which actaully means error- (80040154)    Class
not registered

Now what can I conclude out of this?
Why is the class not registered? which class actually is being talked about?


Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks
Pranay

"Class not registered" refers to the COM class that your Active
X
requires. There can be several reasons for this:
        - low memory 
        - missing dll
        - dll not registered properly
        - invalid permission on dll

There's currently a bug report for Windows Media Player 11 not working
with SWT. We're not sure why it stopped working. 
See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=173556
