Re: [GD-Windows] Extending Internet Explorer DOM when hosting

[Rich <leg...@xm...>]

Hey, I just happened to be reading "ATL Internals" and they were
talking about how you could get a debug listing of all the
QueryInterface traffic between your object and the outside world.
They gave a sample listing the interfaces queried on a control hosted
by IE4.  One of the interfaces listed was IActiveScript.

So I look at IActiveScript in MSDN and it has this method:

    HRESULT AddNamedItem(
	LPCOLESTR pstrName,  // address of item name
	DWORD dwFlags        // item flags
    );

    Adds the name of a root-level item to the scripting engine's
    name space. A root-level item is an object with properties and
    methods, an event source, or all three. 

Now that sounds exactly like what you want.  Now when a control is
hosted in IE4, at some point it hands you a pointer to itself.  You
can use that to QI for IActiveScript, I believe.  (I'm a little new to
AX controls yet.)
