You don't need to implement any methods except Invoke. The other

So are you saying I dont even need to derive from IDispatch ?

You do. You simply return E_NOTIMPL from all methods except Invoke.

My problem is really just trying to get this thing
to *compile* when deriving from IDispatchImpl<> or similar classes.

Don't derive from IDispatchImpl, derive from IDispatch directly.

Is
there an example somewhere I can see?

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
