Mac Forum / Programming / CodeWarrior / June 2003COM equivilent in Macintosh?
I am about to port an application from windows to Mac OS9 / OSX (most likely using PowerPlant). One area I am unfamiliar with is the use of COM plugins in windows. What would be our equivilent technology? -- George Lawrence Storm > One area I am unfamiliar with is the use of COM plugins in windows. > > What would be our equivilent technology? The CFPlugIn module of Carbon corresponds almost exactly to Microsoft COM. It has the basic IUnknown support, and I believe gcc will lay the COM interface out the same way in memory as Microsoft does. Higher level stuff is different, since Microsoft has IDispatch, class factories, aggregation etc. which may have to be manually done on the Mac side.
