Can Qt's COM interface (QAxContainer) handle structures?
Message 1 in thread
Hello!
I'm interesting in Qt's QAxContainer module and have 2 questions regarding it:
1. what Qt edition console/desktop light/desktop required to use QAxContainer?
2. can it handle structures? some COM libraries (OpenOffice API, for
example) expose structures in their interfaces. How can they handled
with QAxObject interface?

See here: http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/commercialeditions.html
you need desktop.

have a look here:
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/qaxbase.html#querySubObject
does that answer your question?
If not, i'm sure sales@xxxxxxxxxxxxx will be able to help you (you can
ask them for a trial version, as well).
Cheers,
Peter

ActiveQt does not handle user-defined structs, but subobjects are accessible
through querySubObject. I'm not familiar with the Open Office COM API to say
which one they use. As user-defined structs are a PITA to work with in most
COM client bindings (including VB) it would be odd if they use them.
