New to COM / thinbasic

[ErosOlmi]

John sorry and please forgive me but I have little time and I do not follow other's projects.
I have so many ideas in my mind about thinBasic and so little time to dedicate to it so I cannot waste it.

I usually develop what people ask here in forum or what I need in using thinBasic every time at work.
At work I'm having so many satisfactions in developing in few hours, sometimes minutes, what to others take days.
And I'm not a programmer at work but "just" an IT manager
So I will continue on this path.


Regarding COM I'm more interested in automation other than ActiveX graphic components.
With iDispatch variable recently added to thinBasic, I think COM automation in thinBasic starts to have a clear and easy dotted notation syntax
What I'm working on is handling events from instantiated COM objects.

Then I will try to be able to interact with the .Net galaxy.

Ciao
Eros

That's a shame. The VB6 OCX DLL Forms controlled by automation is a no brainier and a great way to get a professional looking UI going in a hurry.

You may want to take a second look when you get more time.
