Step 10. Support COM Registration

The last remaining task is to support COM registration, so that the property frame can create new instances of your property page. Add another CFactoryTemplate entry to the global g_Templates array, which is used to register all of the COM objects in your DLL. Do not include any filter set-up information for the property page.

const AMOVIESETUP_FILTER FilterSetupData = 
{ 
    /* Not shown ... */
};

CFactoryTemplate g_Templates[] =
{   
    // This entry is for the filter.
    {
        wszName,
        &CLSID_GrayFilter,
        CGrayFilter::CreateInstance,
        NULL,
        &FilterSetupData 
    },
    // This entry is for the property page.
    { 
        L"Saturation Props",
        &CLSID_SaturationProp,
        CGrayProp::CreateInstance, 
        NULL, NULL
    }
};

If you declare g_cTemplates as shown in the following code, then it automatically has the correct value based on the array size:

int g_cTemplates = sizeof(g_Templates)/sizeof(g_Templates[0]);

Also, add a static CreateInstance method to the property page class. You can name the method anything that you prefer, but the signature must match the one shown the following example:

static CUnknown * WINAPI CreateInstance(LPUNKNOWN pUnk, HRESULT *pHr) 
{
    CGrayProp *pNewObject = new CGrayProp(pUnk);
    if (pNewObject == NULL) 
    {
        *pHr = E_OUTOFMEMORY;
    }
    return pNewObject;
}

To test the property page, register the DLL and then load the filter in GraphEdit. Right-click the filter and select Filter Properties.
