TLB for safe version of OCX

[northstar]

I am trying to find TLB and other header files for the safe version of OCX to use in my C++ which will be finally consumed by a webpage. C++ sample uses the non-safe version.

Thanks.

Hi,

Which OCX are you talking about ??

Kind regards,

Sorry I forgot to mention the OCX name - gdpicture5s.ocx. When I use the regular gdpicture5.ocx in a threaded environment, I get thread entry exceptions.
I am using C++ to create an activeX wrapper to gdpicture to be used in web environment.

Hi,

Using the safe edition will not solve your issue.
The safe edition is just the same edition as the "normal" with a flag for Internet Explorer telling that the control can be used without warnings.

Are you trying to use GdPicture Light in a multi-thread application ? What is the way to reproduce your issue ?

Kind regards,

Loïc

I am not using Light version. I have the pro version.

Steps to reproduce:
Create a sample VC++ OCX Project. ( this is going to be a non-UI OCX)
Add a dialog and insert OCX - for instantiating the GDPicture.OCX
Create OCX - Sign and create a CAB
When accessing OCX methods I see the exception happening.

I am not sure what I am missing?

If I get the TLB file for the safe version with the namespace as GdPicturePro5S might solve the problem, but I have to try that out and see.

Hi,

Code: Select all

If I get the TLB file for the safe version with the namespace as GdPicturePro5S might solve the problem, but I have to try that out and see.

Ok. Please, don't use the safe edition, use the standard one: gdpicturepro5.ocx. This edition is provided with a .tlb which can be found on the folder of the installation directory.

With best regards,

Loïc
