Remarks

Note

This class is deprecated, and the ATL code generation wizards now use the CAtlAutoThreadModule and CAtlModule derived classes. See ATL Module Classes for more information. The information that follows is for use with applications created with older releases of ATL. CComModule is still part of ATL for backwards capability.

CComModule implements a COM server module, allowing a client to access the module's components. CComModule supports both DLL (in-process) and EXE (local) modules.

A CComModule instance uses an object map to maintain a set of class object definitions. This object map is implemented as an array of _ATL_OBJMAP_ENTRY structures, and contains information for:

  • Entering and removing object descriptions in the system registry.

  • Instantiating objects through a class factory.

  • Establishing communication between a client and the root object in the component.

  • Performing lifetime management of class objects.

When you run the ATL COM AppWizard, the wizard automatically generates _Module, a global instance of CComModule or a class derived from it. For more information about the ATL Project Wizard, see the article Creating an ATL Project.

In addition to CComModule, ATL provides CComAutoThreadModule, which implements an apartment-model module for EXEs and Windows services. Derive your module from CComAutoThreadModule when you want to create objects in multiple apartments.

Remarks

If bRegister is TRUE, this method enters the object's standard class registration in the system registry.

If bRegister is FALSE, it removes the object's registration.

Depending on the value of bRegister, UpdateRegistryClass calls either RegisterClassHelper or UnregisterClassHelper.

By specifying the DECLARE_REGISTRY macro, UpdateRegistryClass will be invoked automatically when your object map is processed.

CComModule::UpdateRegistryFromResourceD

As of ATL 7.0, CComModule is obsolete: see ATL Module Classes for more details.

virtual HRESULT UpdateRegistryFromResourceD(  
    LPCTSTR lpszRes,
    BOOL bRegister,
    struct _ATL_REGMAP_ENTRY* pMapEntries = NULL) throw();

virtual HRESULT UpdateRegistryFromResourceD(  
    UINT nResID,
    BOOL bRegister,
    struct _ATL_REGMAP_ENTRY* pMapEntries = NULL) throw ();

Parameters

lpszRes
[in] A resource name.

nResID
[in] A resource ID.

bRegister
[in] Indicates whether the object should be registered.

pMapEntries
[in] A pointer to the replacement map storing values associated with the script's replaceable parameters. ATL automatically uses %MODULE%. To use additional replaceable parameters, see the Remarks for details. Otherwise, use the NULL default value.

Return Value

A standard HRESULT value.

Remarks

Runs the script contained in the resource specified by lpszRes or nResID.

If bRegister is TRUE, this method registers the object in the system registry; otherwise, it unregisters the object.

By specifying the DECLARE_REGISTRY_RESOURCE or DECLARE_REGISTRY_RESOURCEID macro, UpdateRegistryFromResourceD will be invoked automatically when your object map is processed.

Note

To substitute replacement values at run time, do not specify the DECLARE_REGISTRY_RESOURCE or DECLARE_REGISTRY_RESOURCEID macro. Instead, create an array of _ATL_REGMAP_ENTRIES structures, where each entry contains a variable placeholder paired with a value to replace the placeholder at run time. Then call UpdateRegistryFromResourceD, passing the array for the pMapEntries parameter. This adds all the replacement values in the _ATL_REGMAP_ENTRIES structures to the Registrar's replacement map.

Note

To statically link to the ATL Registry Component (Registrar), see UpdateRegistryFromResourceS.

For more information about replaceable parameters and scripting, see the article The ATL Registry Component (Registrar).

CComModule::UpdateRegistryFromResourceS

As of ATL 7.0, CComModule is obsolete: see ATL Module Classes for more details.

virtual HRESULT UpdateRegistryFromResourceS(  
    LPCTSTR lpszRes,
    BOOL bRegister,
    struct _ATL_REGMAP_ENTRY* pMapEntries = NULL) throw();

virtual HRESULT UpdateRegistryFromResourceS(  
    UINT nResID,
    BOOL bRegister,
    struct _ATL_REGMAP_ENTRY* pMapEntries = NULL) throw();

Parameters

lpszRes
[in] A resource name.

nResID
[in] A resource ID.

bRegister
[in] Indicates whether the resource script should be registered.

pMapEntries
[in] A pointer to the replacement map storing values associated with the script's replaceable parameters. ATL automatically uses %MODULE%. To use additional replaceable parameters, see the Remarks for details. Otherwise, use the NULL default value.

Return Value

A standard HRESULT value.

Remarks

Similar to UpdateRegistryFromResourceD except UpdateRegistryFromResourceS creates a static link to the ATL Registry Component (Registrar).

UpdateRegistryFromResourceS will be invoked automatically when your object map is processed, provided you add #define _ATL_STATIC_REGISTRY to your stdafx.h.

Note

To substitute replacement values at run time, do not specify the DECLARE_REGISTRY_RESOURCE or DECLARE_REGISTRY_RESOURCEID macro. Instead, create an array of _ATL_REGMAP_ENTRIES structures, where each entry contains a variable placeholder paired with a value to replace the placeholder at run time. Then call UpdateRegistryFromResourceS, passing the array for the pMapEntries parameter. This adds all the replacement values in the _ATL_REGMAP_ENTRIES structures to the Registrar's replacement map.

For more information about replaceable parameters and scripting, see the article The ATL Registry Component (Registrar).
