Re: [xmlblaster] VB .NET InvalidCastException on Demo Client

Hey - Thanks for the quick response!!!

I use the sample code that came with XMLBlaster (the VB6 frm) and was
able to subscribe and publish. If you mean receiving a message from a
subscription by "callback", then no, I didn't get it working. I got
further than I did in .NET though ;) I guess I can try a little more -
but I saw where the DoEvents was commented out and that def. didn't
work when I uncommented it.

I'm running 2000 Pro SP4. The exception is thrown on the argument
initialization:
 xmlBlaster.initArgs(argArr)
however, just for the helll of it - I commented that out, and the
exception still went off at the next line. It seems like any access to
the instantiation of the XMLScriptAccess class bombs...

I will try VC7... Is it possible that even though the bridge was built
successfully, that there may still be a problem?
I built it with: J2EE SDK 1.4 and my RE is: 1.4.2_03 - I hope that's
right - I know very little about Java ;)


Ahhh, thats the problem, you need to download JDK/JRE 1.5
and use this as you default java.

Hi!

I've built the Activex bridge and tested it without a problem in VB6. 

Did the callback work with VB6?
I've never found out how to do it, it would be nice
if you can guide me how to do it.


I am trying to work with it in .NET and have copied the code exactly
as included with the XMLBlaster download (same as what is on the site
as well).
I get the following error:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' occurred
in mscorlib.dll


This works perfectly on my WinXP (with different service packs) test machine.

At which line is your exception thrown?
Can you lookup the ActiveX control in VC7?

Additional information: QueryInterface for interface
XmlScriptAccess.XmlScriptAccessDispatch failed.

I'm using the simple client for now, but I get the same error with
HelloWorld3 - my code is as follows:

   Sub Main()
       Dim request, response As String
       Dim xmlBlaster As XmlScriptAccess.XmlScriptAccessClass

       xmlBlaster = New XmlScriptAccess.XmlScriptAccessClass

       ' Configure using the SOCKET protocol
       Dim argArr(1) As String
       argArr(0) = "-protocol"
       argArr(1) = "SOCKET"

       xmlBlaster.initArgs(argArr)

       ' Connect to the server
       response = xmlBlaster.sendRequest("<xmlBlaster><connect/></xmlBlaster>")

       ' Query the free memory
       request = "<xmlBlaster><get><key
oid='__cmd:?freeMem'/></get></xmlBlaster>"
       response = xmlBlaster.sendRequest(request)
       Console.WriteLine("Got response:" & response)

       ' Leave the server
       response =
xmlBlaster.sendRequest("<xmlBlaster><disconnect/></xmlBlaster>")
   End Sub

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
