0 azcodemonkey Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Well, COM is quite complex, so my first suggestion is going to MSDN for info. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default....modelanchor.asp (Tutorials) http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default..../com/comobj.asp The two books I recommend are Essential COM by Don Box and Inside COM by Dale Rogerson. ATL has made COM development much easier, so you may not want to spend too much time with raw COM, and invest more time in learning ATL. http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/COM-Tech/atl/tutorials/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 RCube Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Inside ATL by MS isn't bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 azcodemonkey Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Inside ATL by MS isn't bad. Not bad, but a little outdated... unless there's a new one I don't know about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 DrThodt Posted August 12, 2004 Author Share Posted August 12, 2004 Well I'm not working with MSVC++ ( I *could* dl it from MSDN) however. I'm simply learning how to call interfaces and related functions. I have the iTunes SDK and simply wich to get current playing track info uses it's available interfaces.

0 azcodemonkey Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Then MSDN is probably your best bet for an introduction to COM. It shouldn't matter that you aren't using MSVC++ as long as your compiler can utilize the platform sdk's headers and libs, or provides its own(like Borland C++ Builder does).

0 RCube Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Not bad, but a little outdated... unless there's a new one I don't know about. Ture. But you can get it for really cheap right now. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
