I have a COM object that calls into a C# Forms library. The library can throw exceptions and I want to handle the exceptions in COM. Adam Nathan wrote a Microsoft sponsored book titled .Net and Com the complete interoperability guide which shows examples of how to do this.
Below please find the book example code for getting extended error information from a V-Table bound .Net component. This code does not compile because the compiler gives a C1001 (Internal Compiler Error)
If I remove the #import for mscorlib.tlb no_namespace named_guids then the compiler does not complain but I can no longer access _Exception and other interfaces which are referenced in the core lib type library. I have also tried changing the import to a later version of the type lib
Is there a way to reliably pass exceptions between the 2 worlds

What compiler are you using? I don't havbe VC7 (VS.NET 2003) installed, but
this example compiled and ran fine with VC 7.1 (VS.NET 2003). (I also
changed the #import to refer to the 1.1 framework).

cl /? displays - Microsoft (R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 13.10.3077 for 80x86 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 1984-2002. All rights reserved.
The about box of Visual Studio says Version 7.1.3088 of the Development Environment and Version 1.1.4322 of the framework.
Well, that's VC7.1, and the example you posted compiled & ran fine for me
using that version. You're encountering something "strange". Anything else
that might be unique (or less common) about your development environment?
What OS are you using?

I am compiling on XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 1. I have both .Net 1.0 and 1.1 installed but i know the typlelib being loaded is the one referenced in the source file
The machice is an IBM Thinkpad and it has 1gb of memory
When you do cl /? do you also get Microsoft (R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 13.10.3077 for 80x86? This version number isn't obviously related to VS version 7.1.

Yes, that's the same version, and the same OS - XP Pro SP1. I too have .NET
1.0 and 1.1 installed, yet the example worked perfectly for me.
cl version 13.10 = VC version 7.10 (VC1 was cl version 7.00).
Hmm. I'm out of ideas at the moment.
