Hi,

having a few problems with generating OLE Server application.  Tried
to follow the instructions in the help file for Win32 programming.

1.  MkTypLib fails on the ODL file generated with following error msgs

K:\dm\BIN>mktyplib
Microsoft (R) Type Library Generator  Version 2.03.3027
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corp. 1993-1995.  All rights reserved.

I:\test_ole1\test_ole.odl (1) : fatal error M0001: Syntax error near
line 1 column 1:  expected:  library

2.  Regsvr32 fails with msg "LoadLibrary("test_ole.dll") failed.
GetLastError returns 0x000003e6.

It is just a simple app generated using AppExpress, and using
ClassExpress to add a class based on CCmdTarget,  with 1 function that
does goes

long CTestCmdTarget::mult(long x, long y)
{
	 // TODO
	 return x*y;
}

How might I go about resolving this?

Thanks 

TC

All I can suggest at the moment is to check the .odl file and see if the
syntax of it really is bad. -Walter

When I have time next week I will try to check into this one.
I am kinda surprised as I know I have OLE (ActiveX) Server applications
running which I build with DMC++...
