Com objects and Events

[rosch]

Hello,

I have a Question about the QEvent class. I'm trying to catch a powerpoint event, like SlideShowNextSlide Event (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...ice.12%29.aspx). On the Qt Reference (ActiveQt) it says that it works!

Is it possible? and when yes, how can i do it?
I searched all the way in the Internet but i didn't found something that helps me out.

i appreciate your help!

greets Rosch

Take a look at this example:

Hi all,
Thanks for the reply!
I tried to do so like it says in the Example. All worked fine except for the Event connection with Signals & Slots. After looking into to the generated MSPPT.ccp (dumpcpp) i find out that all Event from the Application Object are simply not there!
I've got some snippet here.
First the generate File from the outlook example:

static const char *qt_meta_stringdata_Outlook__MailItem() {
    static const char stringdata0[] = {
    "Outlook::MailItem\0"
    "Event Interface 1\0ItemEvents\0Event Interface 2\0ItemEvents_10\0Interface 0\0_MailItem\0"
    "AttachmentAdd(Attachment*)\0Attachment\0\0\0AttachmentRead(Attachment*)\0Attachment\0\0\0AttachmentRemove(Attachment*)\0Attachment\0"
    "\0\0BeforeAttachmentAdd(Attachment*,bool&)\0Attachment,Cancel\0\0\0BeforeAttachmentPreview(Attachment*,bool&)\0Attachment,Cancel

static const char *qt_meta_stringdata_Outlook__MailItem() {
    static const char stringdata0[] = {
    "Outlook::MailItem\0"
    "Event Interface 1\0ItemEvents\0Event Interface 2\0ItemEvents_10\0Interface 0\0_MailItem\0"
    "AttachmentAdd(Attachment*)\0Attachment\0\0\0AttachmentRead(Attachment*)\0Attachment\0\0\0AttachmentRemove(Attachment*)\0Attachment\0"
    "\0\0BeforeAttachmentAdd(Attachment*,bool&)\0Attachment,Cancel\0\0\0BeforeAttachmentPreview(Attachment*,bool&)\0Attachment,Cancel

As we can see, the event like AttachmentAdd(..) are inside this class but

static const char *qt_meta_stringdata_PowerPoint__Application() {
    static const char stringdata0[] = {
    "PowerPoint::Application\0"

there is no Event like it should be!

Maybe someone can tell me how i can handle this problem. Maybe i generated the Class wrong

TARGET = pptSync
TEMPLATE = app
CONFIG += console qaxContainer
TYPELIBS = $$system(dumpcpp -getfile = {91493440-5A91-11CF-8700-00AA0060263B}
