VT_SAFEARRAY support in SWT [message #453277] Sun, 03 April 2005 20:10 Go to next message

Hello world

I get an SWTException saying VT_SAFEARRAYs are unsupported if I call a
COM object which returns them.

For testing, to play it safe, I created a safe array in one COM method,
calls that method from Java using SWT so my data was in a Variant, then
passed that as an arg to another COM method which took a safe array. No
luck, boom exception.

I really need VT_SAFEARRAY to work in SWT, does anyone know if this is
planned at all, perhaps for with Eclipse 3.1? Or are there any
work-arounds, which don't involve changing my native code's COM API?

Thanks,

e
