Dear all,

I'm trying to make use of one COM object, but have no clue how to do it right.

I have a type library, which works ok (tested it using C#). I'm trying to invoke different methods but they doesn't seem to work.

CoCreateInstance works ok:
Code:
section '.code' code readable executable

start:
       invoke  CoInitialize,NULL
   cmp     eax,S_OK
    jne     error
       invoke  CoCreateInstance,CLSID_SiebelDataBusObjInterface,NULL,CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,IID_SiebelApplication,sApp ;initializing interface
       cmp     eax,S_OK
    jne     error
       cmp     [sApp],0
    jz      error
;...
section '.data' data readable writeable

CLSID_SiebelDataBusObjInterface GUID 6AD52085-E86F-11CF-A52E-00C04FD20274
IID_SiebelApplication GUID 6AD52084-E86F-11CF-A52E-00C04FD20274

sApp      SiebelApplication


But then, when I'm trying to cominvk different methods, I'm receiving unexpected results. here's the definition I made manually from the typelib:
Code:
interface SiebelApplication,\
  LoadObjects,\
      Login,\
    GetBusObject,\
     GetLastErrText,\
   LoginId,\
  LoginName,\
        PositionId,\
       PositionName,\
     CurrencyCode,\
     GetSharedGlobal,\
  SetSharedGlobal,\
  TraceOn,\
  TraceOff,\
 InvokeMethod,\
     Trace,\
    GetService,\
       NewPropertySet,\
   GetProfileAttr,\
   SetProfileAttr,\
   SetPositionId,\
    SetPositionName


I'm thinking that there's something I'm doing the way it shouldn't be done. Any advice would be appreciated.

Here's the typelib:

Code:

What does the documentation say. Or how are the interface's functions defined. Usually most of them inherit from the IUnknown object and therefore must begin with the latter's functions. I.e. AddRef etc

this paper for COM client/server
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/901/Introduction-to-COM-Part-II-Behind-the-Scenes-of-a#_comments
every standard COM interface must implement IUnkown. now
the Siebel complex object has one IUnknown for every disp-interface too (not reported by MIDL). you pick them by their UUID
also, because of nesting it, with fasm an easy way would be by struc. the iUnknown
Code:
 virtual at 0
 struc iUnknown {
  .QueryInterface dq ?
  .AddRef dq ?
  .Release dq ?
 } iUnknown iUnknown
  sizeof.iUnknown = $-iUnknown
  end virtual
then, example nesting,
Code:
 virtual at 0
 struc iClassFactory {
  .iUnknown iUnknown
  .CreateInstance dq ?
  .LockServer     dq ?
 } iClassFactory\
   iClassFactory
   end virtual
   sizeof.iClassFactory\
   = $-iClassFactory

then a complex object
Code:
 virtual at 0
 struc iComplex {
  .iUnknown iUnknown
  .iClassFactory iClassFactory
  .pepsi dq ?
  .alpha dq ?
  } iComplex\
    iComplex
  end virtual
  sizeof.iComplex\
  = $-iComplex
and that allows you this code
Code:
 myStaticCF iClassFactory    ;--- static 
 theComplex iComplex ;--- static
;--- data
 call [myStaticCF.iUnknown.AddRef] ;--- code call issue
 call [myStaticCF.LockServer] ;--- code call issue
;--- and
 call [theComplex.iClassFactory.iUnknown.AddRef]

Cheers,

Thanks for the replies!

typedef, Siebel programming documentation is targeted on VB, eScript and MFC (a little), and there you do everything by checking checkboxes, running wizards etc. and such stuff. They don't describe the interface and do not enum methods in it, unfortunately.

hopcode, thank you, Marc! It'll take time for me to analyse this information
