Re: Support for Global Interface Table (GIT)

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I believe that WinCE supports this. There's a problem though where the
registry we're providing doesn't have the CLSID defined however, so you'll
need to setup HKLM\CLSID\<CLSID_StdGlobalInterfaceTable...> so that it is
setup right. (Or if it's in the registry I'm totally missing it.) My
apologies for you having to do this, this isn't the first time that a non
frequently used CLSID in the guts of COM didn't get setup in reg.

Additionally, make sure your device has DCOM (you don't need remoting DCOM
though) installed in the 1s place, since COM is big time componentized and I
wouldn't want you wasting cycles on that. This is unrelated to registry
issue above, just a precaution.

Because CLSID_StdGlobalInterfaceTable isn't in our reg, be aware it's never
been tested from an app directly calling it as you want to. It should just
work though, this code is straight ported from desktop without a ton of
changes for CE.

Please let me know if this ends up working for you.

Does anybody know if WCE supports the Global Interface Table.

I get a "Class not registered" executing:

CoCreateInstance(CLSID_StdGlobalInterfaceTable...)

If not, what is available under WCE to marshal interfaces across threads.

Thanks in advance.
