[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: Setting the ppDispId param in an OleCont

["Veronika Irvine" <veronika_irvine@xxxxxxx>]

I don't know as much about embedding IE as I would like to, but I will give
a stab at this question:

The MSDN says:
"Create a new, hidden, nonnavigated WebBrowser or InternetExplorer object
that is returned in ppDisp."

I do not think that means an IDispatch object for the OleFrame (which
currently does not implement an IDispatch interface).  I think you would
need to create a second OleFrame + OleControlSite for Shell.Explorer and
pass the address of the IDispatch interface for the IWebBrowser object.

e.g.:

OleFrame frame = new OleFrame(parent, SWT.NONE);
OleControlSite controlSite = new OleControlSite(frame, SWT.NONE,
"Shell.Explorer");
OleAutomation oleObject = new OleAutomation(controlSite);
int address = oleObject.getAddress(); // this unfortunately is not public
API so you would have to hack the OleAutomation class to get it.  Request
support from SWT
COM.MoveMemory(ppDispID, new int[] {address}, 4);
