Error Using An Object Array With .NET COM Interop DLL
Mar 28, 2011I've found a lot of other references to this error using Google but I'm having trouble making sense out of how they apply to what I'm doing.
Here's the VBA error I'm getting at compile time: "Function or interface marked as restricted, or the function uses an Automation type not supported in Visual Basic."
VBA Code that causes the error:
'ftp is also a com object created in code not posted here
Dim f() As wooxter.FTPFile
f = ftp.GetFileList 'Returns an object array of type FTPFile

.net - Interop Cannot Call Get_Range, And Cannot Use Two-dimensional Object Array Returned By Range().Value2?
Jun 1, 2011Trying to replace Cells(RowIndex,ColumnIndex).Value() calls by row-wise references for performance, I permanently fail at referencing the result. Starting with Excel Interop - Efficiency and performance, which contains the tip to use get_range, i.e.
//get values
object[,] objectArray = shtName.get_Range("A1:Z100").Value2;
iFace = Convert.ToInt32(objectArray[1,1]);
//set values
object[,] objectArray = new object[3,1] {{"A"}{"B"}{"C"}};
rngName.Value2 = objectArray;
[Code]...
However, referencing Values with two dimension indices always returns an "index was outside the bounds of the array" exception. Inspecting the array with the debugger shows a nice 2-dimensional array which should has 17 elements on the second dimension, so Value (0,0) should indeed be a valid reference -- but it isn't:
The debugger lets me inspect Value, I can also drill down to Value(0,0) and see the correct value, but re-evaluating just that element, i.e. inspecting "Value (0,0)" returns above message.
Interop - Marshaling Arrays From .NET To COM Object?
May 25, 2009I have a VB6 program which calls a COM method, passing 2 arrays as parameters and expecting 2 arrays to be populated in response.The code is this, where ItemIDs and ItemClientHandles are the input array parameters and MyItemServerHandles and Errors are populated by the COM object.
Dim ItemIDs(2) As String
Dim ItemClientHandles(2) As Long
Dim Errors() As Long ' Array for returned Item related errors
Dim MyItemServerHandles() As Long ' Server Handles for Items

Release Inner Objects Of A COM Interop Object?
Jul 12, 2010I have a managed class that uses a COM that looks like this.
[Code]....
Since I am using an unmanaged dll through a COM-Interob dll I am wondering if I need free the innerobj manually or if the gc is smart enough to do it automagically if I call ReleaseObject() My class implements IDisposable and I do the following atm: Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(myobj) Do I need to take care of releasing all inner objects that are created by the COM Object or not? And If I do have to do it, does the order matter (first inner then parent vs parent then inner)?
Return Array Of Classes So That It Can Be Consumed From VBA (via COM-Interop)?
May 12, 2010I need to provide a DLL that is consumed by a VBA app (Access 2003, late binding) and returns stuff that is retrieved from various WebServices. These WebServices publish methods that not only return a single object, but also arrays of them.
From the Access-app's point of view, it's no problem to consume i.e. an array of strings. However, there's also methods that return an array of a (proprietary) class. I can't seem to be able to consume such an array from VBA.[code]....
Windows Script Host Object Model's Interop.IWshRuntimeLibrary.dll Referencing Same Directory As Executable
May 10, 2011I have an application that creates desktop shortcuts. To do this I have to reference the Windows Script Host Object Model. When I add it as a reference, it always creates the DLL, Interop.IWshRuntimeLibrary.dll, in the objx86Debug directory, then references itself to it, rather than looking at wshom.ocx. Even if I add reference wshom.ocx it reverts to saving the file in the objx86Debug directory. The problem is if I move my application to another computer without that DLL being present, the program fails to run.

Object Array To Byte Array - Marshal.AllocHGlobal Fragmentation Query?
Jun 14, 2011I didn't think it fair to post a comment on Fredrik Mörk's answer in this 2 year old post, so I thought I'd just ask it as a new question instead..NB: This is not a critiscm of the answer in any way, I'm simply trying to understand this all before delving into memory management / the marshal class.
In that answer, the function GetByteArray allocates memory to each object within the given array, within a loop.Would the GetByteArray function on the aforementioned post have benefited at all from allocating memory for the total size of the provided array:
Dim arrayBufferPtr = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(Marshal.SizeOf(<arrayElement>) * <array>.Count)
I just wonder if allocating the memory, as shown in the answer, causes any kind of fragmentation? Assuming there may be fragmentation, would there be much of an impact to be concerned with? Would allocating the memory in the way I've shown force you to call IntPtr.ToInt## to obtain pointer offsets from the overall allocation pointer, and therefore force you to check the underlying architecture to ensure the correct method is used*1 or is there a better way? (ToInt32/ToInt64 depending on x86/64?)
*1 I read elsewhere that calling the wrong IntPtr.ToInt## will cause overflow exceptions. What I mean by that statement is would I use:
Dim anOffsetPtr As New IntPtr(arrayBufferPtr.ToInt## + (loopIndex * <arrayElementSize>))
I've read through a few articles on the VB.Net Marshal class and memory allocation; listed below, but if you know fo any other good articles I'm all ears![URL]..
Error : Unable To Cast The COM Object Of Type 'System._ComObject' To Interface Type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.CustomProperties'
May 10, 2009I have been trying to use vb2008 to automatically update CustomDocumentProperties fields that I have set up within a pro-forma document. I can load the Word application and word document without problems.I want to update the CustomDocumentProperties fields with data read from a dB. To do this I am assuming that I need to iterate through the CustomDocumentProperties fields within the word document and when one is "found" that matches the data I wish to merge then assign the dB value to the field.The problem is that I am getting an exception error when I try to reference the document customdocumentproperties

Passing An Array Of Integer To An Array Of Object In A Function
Mar 4, 2012I am creating a dll with all the functions and subroutines that I use all the time and I decided to create a function that I can pass different types of array to so the function obviously (or not) would have an array of type object. Now I no you can pass any type into an object type but when I pass an integer array into an object array I get an error.
value of type '1-dimensional array of integer' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of object' because 'integer' is not a reference type.
Shared Function CompareArray(ByVal FirstArray() As Object, ByVal SecondArray() As Object, Optional ByRef ErrorMessage As String = "") As Boolean

Creating An Object Array Of Different Object Types?
Mar 29, 2010I am having some trouble creating an object array of different object types. Here is what I have so far:
Public Sub New()
Dim b1 As New Book("Book Title 1", "Gold Book Publisher", 1.0, "Bob Jones", "192DJDJD212", "01/02/10")
Dim b2 As New Book("Book Title 2", "Gold Book Publisher", 1.0, "Bob Jones", "192DJDJD212", "01/02/10")
Dim b3 As New Book("Book Title 3", "Gold Book Publisher", 1.0, "Bob Jones", "192DJDJD212", "01/02/10")
[code]....
If I define the array As Book (Public publicationArray(6) As Book) or Magazine (Public publicationArray(6) As Magazine) I am able to access the properties of that class but not both. I think I need to define a type for each array instance but not sure how to do this.

Turn A Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Chart Object Into A Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Chart Object?
Aug 5, 2010Basically I've coded an Excel 2007 project in VB.NET 2010 that allows you to create charts with a fair amount of interactivity. I want the user to be able to save and reopen this workbook and still have that interactivity in any already-created charts, so they don't have to re-create them.
When I create the charts, I use Sheet1.Controls.AddChart(...), which returns a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Chart with which I can handle events and such. However, when I reopen the file and look through the Sheet1.Controls collection, there are no Chart objects. Accessing the charts through Sheet1.ChartObjects.Chart gives me Interop Charts, when I need the Tools Charts.

Object Name Pulled From Aan Array?
Jun 9, 2011My project I am working on is a product location system for a large supermarket. My current issue is that the map I am using to display the product location is assembled from rectangle objects which I will then change the colour of when required.The array storing the locations is dimensioned as LocationArray(x) Where x is equal to the max rows function used on a table in database. Stored information always proceeded with "loc_" and the location. All rectangles are named in accordance with this.
I wish to pull the field name stored in the array (which corresponds to the rectangle to change colour) and be able to change its colour. This is giving me issue as the straight forward command of "LocationArray(x).Color = #" doesnt work as an array does not inherit this property.
Pass Out An Object Array In .NET?
Mar 25, 2011I'm writing a wrapper class to expose a subset of the functionality of a .NET FTP library edtftpne from Enterprise Distributed Technologies.
When you call the edtftp's GetFileInfos method you get an array of FTPFile objects returned. I'm able to iterate through these but I don't know how to pass them on as a new and different object array containing only Name and Size for each file. Here's the code I have. Sorry it's a little confusing because I have my own class named FTPFile and the .NET library I'm using also has a class named FTPFile. I'm using both of them here. I should probably change the name of my class just to avoid confusion:
Public Function GetFileList() As FTPFile() Implements IFTP.GetFileList
Dim ftpfiles() As EnterpriseDT.Net.Ftp.FTPFile
ftpfiles = fCon.GetFileInfos 'Fill object array
[Code]....
I'd just pass on the object array that I'm getting from the GetFileInfos method but COM clients won't have access to the class/object EnterpriseDT.Net.Ftp.FTPFile without me rewriting it, I'm assuming.
