Java HotSpot Virtual Machine

Hi All,

I connected the OCX(ActiveX) component of the program using JACOB by giving the classid from the registry.

public static void main(String[] args)
{
ActiveXComponent ie = new ActiveXComponent("clsid:86C16A54-40A2-47EC-95B8-94E36701B0B9");
Object ieo = ie.getObject();
System.out.println(ieo);

Output is : com.jacob.activeX.ActiveXComponent@4e42c917

The next line is to set the property::

ie.setProperty("PrinterName", new Variant("Image Service"));

It gives the error � exception ::

Error:

Exception in thread "main" com.jacob.com.ComFailException: A COM exception has been encountered:
At Invoke of: PrinterName
Description: Catastrophic failure

at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.invokev(Native Method)
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.invokev(Dispatch.java:391)
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.invoke(Dispatch.java:274)
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.put(Dispatch.java:374)
at com.jacob.activeX.ActiveXComponent.setProperty(ActiveXComponent.java:69)
at string1.main(string1.java:20)

PrinterName is the specified property of the OCX.

If we are giving the name other then specified in the OCX then it gives different error:

Exception in thread "main" com.jacob.com.ComFailException: Can't map name to dispid: Unknown
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.invokev(Native Method)
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.invokev(Dispatch.java:391)
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.invoke(Dispatch.java:274)
at com.jacob.com.Dispatch.put(Dispatch.java:374)
at com.jacob.activeX.ActiveXComponent.setProperty(ActiveXComponent.java:69)
at string1.main(string1.java:20)

It proves that the OCX is connected.

Don�t know how to use the properties or method of that OCX????

Pls mail me�at krunalbarot@gmail.com

Thanx in advance.
