Convert sample from platform SDK to Delphi

[Robert Marquardt]

Try WideString. The Delphi WideString is in fact the Windows BSTR used in COM interfaces.
The added conversion is correct. "&&" is "logical and" and "&" is "bitwise and". Delphi uses "and" for both.
"!" is the "logical not" so "= 0" is also correct.

How about this one?

Code:

CComPtr<IADs> m_spADObject;

I made this:
    m_spADObject: IADS; and one more:

Code:

dwBytes += (sbstrADsPath.Length() + 1) * sizeof(WCHAR);

dwBytes := (length(sbstrADspath) + 1) * SizeOf(WChar); // Or use Inc here as Olli suggests?

Zitat von Remko:

Code:

dwBytes += (sbstrADsPath.Length() + 1) * sizeof(WCHAR);

dwBytes := (length(sbstrADspath) + 1) * SizeOf(WChar); // Or use Inc here as Olli suggests?

Must be
dwBytes := dwBytes + ((length(sbstrADspath) + 1) * SizeOf(WChar)); otherwise you get a false value.

Inc(dwBytes, (length(sbstrADspath) + 1) * SizeOf(WChar)); is possbile also.

From JwaAdsTLB:

Delphi-Quellcode:

// *********************************************************************//
// Interface: IADs
// Flags:     (4416) Dual OleAutomation Dispatchable
// GUID:      {FD8256D0-FD15-11CE-ABC4-02608C9E7553}
// *********************************************************************//
  IADs = interface(IDispatch)
    ['{FD8256D0-FD15-11CE-ABC4-02608C9E7553}']
    function  Get_Name: WideString; safecall;
    function  Get_Class_: WideString; safecall;
    function  Get_GUID: WideString; safecall;
    function  Get_ADsPath: WideString; safecall;
    function  Get_Parent: WideString; safecall;
    function  Get_Schema: WideString; safecall;
    procedure GetInfo; safecall;
    procedure SetInfo; safecall;
    function  Get(const bstrName: WideString): OleVariant; safecall;
    procedure Put(const bstrName: WideString; vProp: OleVariant); safecall;
    function  GetEx(const bstrName: WideString): OleVariant; safecall;
    procedure PutEx(lnControlCode: Integer; const bstrName: WideString; vProp: OleVariant); safecall;
    procedure GetInfoEx(vProperties: OleVariant; lnReserved: Integer); safecall;
    property Name: WideString read Get_Name;
    property Class_: WideString read Get_Class_;
    property GUID: WideString read Get_GUID;
    property ADsPath: WideString read Get_ADsPath;
    property Parent: WideString read Get_Parent;
    property Schema: WideString read Get_Schema;
  end;

In the sample:

Code:

hr = m_spADObject->get_ADsPath(&sbstrADsPath);

I could use:
sbstrADspath := m_spADObject.get_ADsPath; but how to get hr?

[Robert Marquardt]

sbstrADspath := m_spADObject.get_ADsPath; Can be changed to
sbstrADspath := m_spADObject.ADsPath; The Get_ and Set_ methods are property getters and setters just like in Delphi.
hr you can ignore. This is just COM error return value which is already hidden by the Delphi COM interface.
If really an error arises then your computer is already screwed up completely so no real need to catch it.

Thanks all, I attached my code so far. I will try to finish and test it today.
Please feel free to comment, improve or correct my code. I'm really learning a lot from this project, especially from all the help on DP!

How to do this one:

Code:

HWND CPropSheetHost::_CreateHiddenWindow()
{
    WNDCLASS  wc;

    if(!GetClassInfo(m_hInst, m_szHiddenWindowClass, &wc))
    {
        ZeroMemory(&wc, sizeof(wc));
           
        wc.style          = CS_HREDRAW | CS_VREDRAW;
        wc.lpfnWndProc    = (WNDPROC)_HiddenWindowProc;
<cut>

LRESULT CALLBACK CPropSheetHost::_HiddenWindowProc( HWND hWnd,
                                                    UINT uMessage,
                                                    WPARAM wParam,
                                                    LPARAM lParam)

I thought this:

Delphi-Quellcode:

function TPropSheetHost._CreateHiddenWindow: HWND;
var wc: TWndClass;
begin
  if not GetClassInfo(m_hInst, m_szHiddenWindowClass, wc) then
  begin
    ZeroMemory(@wc, SizeOf(wc));
    wc.style          := CS_HREDRAW or CS_VREDRAW;
    wc.lpfnWndProc    := @_HiddenWindowProc;
<cut>

function TPropSheetHost._HiddenWindowProc(hWnd: HWnd; Msg: UINT; WParam: WPARAM; LParam: LPARAM): UINT; stdcall;

But that doesn't make the compiler happy: [Pascal Error] PropSheetHost.pas(174): E2036 Variable required

Edit: Should I make that:

Delphi-Quellcode:

wc.lpfnWndProc    := @TPropSheetHost_HiddenWindowProc;
function TPropSheetHost._HiddenWindowProc(hWnd: HWnd; Msg: UINT; WParam: WPARAM; LParam: LPARAM): UINT; stdcall;

?[/delphi]
or
[delphi][pre]wc.lpfnWndProc := @_HiddenWindowProc;
function _HiddenWindowProc(hWnd: HWnd; Msg: UINT; WParam: WPARAM; LParam: LPARAM): UINT; stdcall;[/pre]?

[mkinzler]

On wich line the error is shown?

[Remko]

wc.lpfnWndProc := @_HiddenWindowProc; (see my edit above)

[Remko]

What's referenced by (LPVOID)this)?

Code:

HWND CPropSheetHost::_CreateHiddenWindow()
{
    WNDCLASS  wc;

    if(!GetClassInfo(m_hInst, m_szHiddenWindowClass, &wc))
    {
        ZeroMemory(&wc, sizeof(wc));
           
        wc.style          = CS_HREDRAW | CS_VREDRAW;
        wc.lpfnWndProc    = (WNDPROC)_HiddenWindowProc;
        wc.cbClsExtra     = 0;
        wc.cbWndExtra     = sizeof(CPropSheetHost*);
        wc.hInstance      = m_hInst;
        wc.hCursor        = LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);
        wc.hbrBackground  = (HBRUSH)(COLOR_WINDOW + 1);
        wc.lpszClassName  = m_szHiddenWindowClass;

        if(!RegisterClass(&wc))
        {
            return NULL;
        }
    }

    m_hwndHidden = CreateWindowEx(  0,
                                    m_szHiddenWindowClass,
                                    NULL,
                                    WS_OVERLAPPED |
                                        0,
                                    CW_USEDEFAULT,
                                    CW_USEDEFAULT,
                                    CW_USEDEFAULT,
                                    CW_USEDEFAULT,
                                    NULL,
                                    NULL,
                                    m_hInst,
                                    (LPVOID)this);

    return m_hwndHidden;
}
