COM, OLE Future?
Author
Hi,
I'm dealing with COM and OLE(-Controls) for a while now (pure C++ and ATL), and there are still many mysteries. I think it's very clumsy and hard to grasp.
Now I wonder what people (and microsoft themselves) think about it today? Is it still up-to-date and what is it's future? Is it worthwhile to get in-depth knowledge about it, or is it slowly dying?
Bye
Chris
Many Windows frameworks ride on top of COM.
If you're interested in understanding the guts of it, here are a few references.
The COM Programmer's Cookbook
COM in plain C - Part 1
COM in plain C - Part 2
As you can see from those last two links, there's still an interest in it. I realize those articles explain COM in C, but examining it at that level might help you make sense of it at higher levels.
