[news.eclipse.tools] NewWindow2 Event and Shell.Explorer

[Terry Heath <theath@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am looking for some help in using the Shell.Explorer using Ole in
eclipse.  We would like to capture the NewWindow2 event and disable new
windows from popping up.   We need to do this since the newly opened
explorer windows are actually new processes and do not share the same
session cookies or credentials.

Ultimately we need a new explorer window created in the same process as
the Shell.explorer.   To do this we have found that we can create our
own SWT popup window with another Shell.Explorer in it, and we then end
up sharing the same session cookies.      To Cancel the NewWindow2
event, we currently Move the VARIANT_TRUE value into the Cancel param of
the following event like the following.

  controlSite.addEventListener(NewWindow2, new OleListener() {
           public void handleEvent(OleEvent event1) {

                        //  get the referenece to the Cancel parameter
                        Variant cancelRef = event1.arguments[1];

                        if (cancelRef != null) {
                                int ptr = cancelRef.getByRef();
                                Variant v = new Variant(-1);  // -1 is
the same as VARIANT_TRUE
                                COM.MoveMemory(ptr, new int[] {(int)
v.getInt()}, 4);
                        }

                        //     At this point I would like to create my
new Ole  Shell.Explorer and the set the
                        //    event.arguments[0] value to whatever the
correct value should be, however I don't know how.
                        //
                        //    Here is the Signature of the NewWindow2
event from MSDN.
                        //    Private Sub object_NewWindow2(
                        //            ByRef ppDisp As Object,
                        //            ByRef Cancel As Boolean
                        //    )

                        return;
            }
     });

This is how I would create the Shell.Explorer, something like the
following:

    controlSite = new OleControlSite(frame, SWT.NONE, "Shell.Explorer");

    int s = controlSite.doVerb(OLE.OLEIVERB_PRIMARY);
    oleAutomation = new OleAutomation(controlSite);

How would I copy the new IDispatch back to the ppDisp parameter of the
NewWindow2 event.

Any help is always greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Terry  Heath
