Visual Basic 6 Code Sample

Within Visual Basic 6, select Project > Components, then Browse for the .dll of the wrapper object in order to include the objects definition in the project.

For details about the object parameters, see Sample IDL Object.

Initiation Without Parameters in Visual Basic 6

Use the following code to initialize the object with no parameters.

Private Sub MyRoutine

Dim oFoo As IDLexFoo

Set oFoo = New IDLexFoo

On Error GoTo ErrorHandler

oFoo.CreateObject 0, 0, 0

' use object here...

Return

ErrorHandler:

If Not oFoo Is Nothing Then

Debug.Print oFoo.GetLastError

End If

End Sub

Initiation with Parameters in Visual Basic 6

Use the following code to initialize the object with its three parameters (a string, a 32-bit long value, and an array which has two rows and three columns, containing 32- bit long values).

Const PARMFLAG_CONST As Integer = &H1

Const PARMFLAG_CONV_MAJORITY As Integer = &H4000

Private Sub MyRoutine

Dim oFoo As IDLexFoo

Dim parmStr As String

Dim parmVal As Long

Dim parmArr(1, 2) As Long

Dim argc As Long

Dim argv(2) As Variant

Dim argpal(2) As Long

parmStr = "I am a string parameter"

parmVal = 24

parmArr(0, 0) = 10: parmArr(0, 1) = 11: parmArr(0, 2) = 12

parmArr(1, 0) = 20: parmArr(1, 1) = 21: parmArr(1, 2) = 22

argc = 3

argv(0) = parmStr: argpal(0) = PARMFLAG_CONST

argv(1) = parmVal: argpal(1) = PARMFLAG_CONST

argv(2) = parmArr: argpal(2) = PARMFLAG_CONST + _PARMFLAG_CONV_MAJORITY
