Hi all,

I've posted an update to EuCOM.  I think it should work on NT/2000 now, as
I've fixed the incorrect structures that were causing memory exceptions.
It's up on the Contributions page (although it looks like Rob updated the
DirectX entry instead of the EuCOM entry :).  The file is right, but you'll
have to look down the list a little bit, or you can get it at:

It also includes a type library browser (TBrowse.exw) that can generate an
include file for using a COM object.  (A type library is like a machine
readable help file, containing specs on all of the
objects/members/structures etc contained in a COM object).  

For those interested in DirectX programming, use TBrowse on dxvb8.dll in
your system directory to generate an include file (that's what I did for my
DirectX demo).  Just be aware that even though it will generate code for a
dispinterface, you have to call the member functions directly, using vtable
offsets (call_interface/call_interface_ptr instead of invoke/invoke_ptr).

PS Win32Lib developers may want to look at TBrowse--I implemented the
resizing of the two side by size lists.  Try clicking and dragging in
between the lists and resizing the window.
