Licensing ActiveX Controls at Runtime

Hello,

I need to license AxMSCommLib.AxM SComm at runtime, I'd rather not mess
with the registry at install. I have seen this code posted all over the
web:

AxMSCommLib.AxM SComm com;
string strLicense = "kjljvjjjoquqmj jjvpqqkqmqykypo qjquoun";
System.Reflecti on.FieldInfo f =
typeof(AxHost). GetField("licen seKey",
System.Reflecti on.BindingFlags .NonPublic |
System.Reflecti on.BindingFlags .Instance);

f.SetValue(com, strLicense);

This code DOES NOT WORK. Any ideas why?

Thanks.

hello all, msdn says this about using a dotnet windows control library in activex environment... You have to write one relatively small piece of code to make your .NET control accessible to ActiveX hosts. ActiveX controls make several registry entries that standard COM servers don't, so you have to add this functionality to your .NET control. The CLR contains prefabricated functions that will make and remove these entries. These

Hi. I've never created an ActiveX control before, so I know little about what it is capable of and what its limitations are. My problem is this: I have to create a way to send multiple documents from the web server to a printer on the user's network. The way it works today the user has to manually download each document and send it to his printer, but now they want me to create an automated process. Will I be able to download documents...

hI have a series of ActiveX controls written in VB6 that I want to now use in VB.NET. In the VB6 world I loaded these controls at runtime as needed. This worked great as they all implemented a common interface. I am having some issues now when I try to do the same things in VB.NET. The controls will load, however, they fail on the following line of code If TypeOf UserControl.Extender.Parent Is IControlInterface Then

I just downloaded a activex control that was written in C# and tried to view it on my PDA's Internet Explorer. At my regular PC it displayed just fine, but nothing showed up on the pda. Do ActiveX controls that are to be used by a pda need to be written in the ..net compact framework, or am i missing something else here? i have a HP iPaq 2490 with Windows Mobile Premium installed While i'm at it; does a activex control allow you to...

Hi, I have a C# application (VS2005) with Microsoft Mappoint activeX control on a form. At a certain moment I want to create a second one temporary in code. This seems not to work, when I try to access it I have an InvalidActiveXState Exception. I cannot find mutch on the web about this Invalid State of a component except that it is invalid (what the Exception already describe). So I hope someone here knows ?

Hey, I have spent several days trying to find out how to do something, and i don't know if I am blind or what, but I can not find it. I am developing a web app and I need it to run an activex control. I have developed the control and it runs great on my development system (VS2005, C#, IE6, Win2000Pro, output is a DLL) because as far as I can tell, the IDE registers the DLL. The problem is packaging it so it registers itself on any...

I'm developing an app here that uses ActiveX controls to connect to industrial cameras over Ethernet. I want to be able to dynamically create those controls at runtime based on how many cameras are configured, rather than take the easy way out and put a fixed amount of controls on the form at design. Makes it more flexible. At the moment the way I am trying to do it is adding instances of the control into a collection with their individual...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
