When a COM client calls a DotNet object, the DotNet framework will create a COM callable wrapper (CCW). COM clients use the CCW as a proxy for the managed object.The example uses a DotNet component and COM client extending the functionality of the DotNet component using delegation.
The .NET framework exposes COM objects through a proxy called the runtime callable wrapper (RCW). The primary function of RCW is to marshal call between a managed client (.Net) and unmanaged COM object. The runtime maintains a single RCW for each COM object.The example uses a COM component and DotNet client extending the functionality of the COM component using delegation.
This article elucidates how to build and install-managed code that will be used from COM applications. A classic COM server is activated using the Service Control Manager (SCM). It looks up numerous information such as CLSIDs, IIDs, ProgIDs etc.
In this article I cover the area how to use a COM server in a .NET client. Existing COM components are precious resources to your managed applications. So now let us observe how you can build a .NET Client that uses a COM Server.
Learn how to access .NET components from VB.NET, including COM interop, assembly registration, and type library use.
