active x component 1

[bubak]

HI, i'm debuging code, that I haven't written. And when I find a code like:
CLSID const& GetClsid()
{
static CLSID const clsid
= { 0x7028347f, 0x3950, 0x11d3, { 0xa2, 0x76, 0x0, 0xa0, 0xc9, 0x1d, 0x5e, 0xfb } };
return clsid;
}
and after that createing of component with that ID, where can I find out, what component it is? (name, propertise, dll of it,...)

THX

I don't know if I understand right but you could look up in the registry under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\CLSID\"yourCLSID"
(You will have to convert a litlle it's format.)

undet the subkey InProcServer usually you will find the DLL name.

ok, thx, that's what I wanted, now I'll scan msdn to find the format conversion and let's rock ;-) (google dlls ;-)

ONE more thing: The programm doesn't work, because it cannot create the activex component. when I browse the source, I'll get that id, but that doesn't help me, because that component isn't registered by me. I guess, the ID is always the same, so it may be some list of that components somewhere? Or there is no way, if I cannot find out what software was on the computer, where it worked OK?
thx

Have you try to register the components with
regsvr32.exe {path}\MyComponent.dll (or .OCX)
at command prompt.

BTW, all .dll or .ocx that are components must export a function pair DllRegisterServer/DllUnregisterServer to be COM components. You can check that with QuickView or DependencyWalker
