Hi folks,
I really need some help instantiating a COM object.
I've been given a .dll file, and been told that it is the COM object,
but I don't know how to instantiate it. I thought it would be simple.
I've tried:
<cfset BBAPI = CreateObject("COM", "COM.BBAPI")>
The directory is COM and the dll is called BBAPI. I thought maybe it was
a path thing, but I tried instantiating a CFC (whose directory is on the
same level as the COM directory) and it worked like a champ.
The only thing mentioned about instantiating the object is mentioned in
his component summary. The first two items are:
Type: COM
Name: BBAPI
Note: Used for instantiating the object
Type: Class
Name: API
Note: Used for instantiating the object. (i.e. CreateObject BBAPI.API)
I've tried:
<cfset BBAPI = CreateObject("COM", "COM.API")>
<cfset BBAPI = CreateObject("COM", "COM.BBAPI")>
<cfset BBAPI = CreateObject("COM", "COM.BBAPI.API")>
<cfset BBAPI = CreateObject("COM", "COM.BBAPI.dll")>
I just don't know what to do. The docs say that I need:
<cfset BBAPI = CreateObject("COM", "class")>
Well according to what I'm reading the class is "API".
Can someone help me please? :o)
Chris
