Title: About COM programming
Post by: David MAREC on October 25, 2005, 10:40:10 am

hello.

I need to create DCOM objects  and i would like to use MingGW under Code::blocks to build that project.


Does somebody know an easy way to compile some Microsoft specific keywords such as __uuidof() ?

You can always use the MSVC++ Toolkit to compile. No one stops you from doing that.

The project is built well by the Microsoft compiler,
but i am looking for some tips to compile that code using MinGW.


On the other hand, Does the MSVC toolkit provide a debugger for free ?

The Platform SDK includes a free Debugger WinDGB. It is a standalone program. You can currently not debug programs built with VC Toolkit in CodeBlocks.

In that case, you should ask in other programmer forums. The codeblocks forums are intended to debug and troubleshoot C::B itself. You need to find a forum filled with other programmers in various environments, i.e. gamedev forums, the mingw forums, or devx. I'm sure you'll find much more help in there.
