accessing properties of object passed by an event, in a speedy manner
Posted by Joshua Waxman at 12/30/2007 7:06:42 PM
Hello.
I'm working on a C++.NET project in which I am receiving events from a
COM object, using COM Interop. This is a time-critical application,
and Interop issues are slowing performance down to unacceptable
levels, and so I am looking for ways to optimize for speed.

SetWindowPlacement
Posted by Zamdrist at 12/28/2007 12:41:27 PM
For the life of me I cannot get this API function to work as expected
in VB.Net
I am however using SetWindowPos, and so long as the window is not
minimized, it will position as I tell it to. If the window is
minimized SetWindowPos will not move the window, and

(I am a novice with interop services so bear with me...)
I have a legacy C# application and am using VS2005 to generate a dll for it.
I want to make this available for COM access which requires, as I understand
it, invoking both gacutil and regasm. I am getting this error from regasm:

Posted by Mark at 12/21/2007 7:23:01 AM
Hi...
Just out of curiousity, I was wondering if the InprocServer32\RuntimeVersion

EnumWindows, VB.Net
Posted by Zamdrist at 12/19/2007 1:35:50 PM
I know that a callback function can be used to run the EnumWindows
function of WIn32 API in VB.Net.
My question is however...is there a strictly VB.Net way of doing this,
not using a callback function and the Win32 API?
i.e. What is the .Net *way*...or is there one?

Saving dataset to XML and reading back gives different data
Posted by Lucvdv at 12/18/2007 10:46:08 AM
This would better be described by 'serialization' than 'interop', but I
didn't find a newsgroup that seems closer on topic.
The problem in a few words: I save data with DataSet.WriteXML, but I get
different data back when I read it later with DataSet.ReadXml.

When to use Marshal.GetNativeVaraintForObject
Posted by Creativ at 12/14/2007 5:57:27 AM
Hi, I notice that Marshal.GetNativeVaraintForObject is a way to create

But DotNet can do marshalling from object to variant when an object is
used as a parameter.
Can anyone tell in which case I should use

Testing the COM API of a .NET interop assembly

Hi,
I am trying to create a unit test in .NET that tests the COM API of
