Qt ActiveX: threw an exception of type 'System.Invalid.CastException'
-
Hello everyone,
I have created an ActiveX standalone server with Qt's activex support. So far, the activex server has been registered in the registry, the COM interface can be queries, BUT after creating a new activex server class instance a "System.InvalidCastException" rises.
I like to use the Qt ActiveX component within a C# .Net Application for Windows 7.
- reference to the manually created interop reference has been added to VisualStudio
- the using statement has been added
- the interface and classes are accessible and it seems the class can be instantiated
The simple testing application is:
@
using TcHmiCreatorLib;namespace WindowsFormsApplication1
{
static class Program
{
[STAThread]
static void Main()
{
ITcHmiAxServer tchmi = new TcHmiAxServerClass();
if (tchmi != null)
{
Trace.WriteLine("Server interface ok");
}
}
}
}
@Outputs:
@
...
The thread '<Thread Ended>' (0x9d8) has exited with code 0 (0x0).
The thread '<Thread Ended>' (0x1bc0) has exited with code 0 (0x0).
Server interface ok
...
@But with the Debugger I get the following values:
@- [TcHmiCreatorLib.TcHmiAxServerClass] {TcHmiCreatorLib.TcHmiAxServerClass} TcHmiCreatorLib.TcHmiAxServerClass
- acceptDrops '((TcHmiCreatorLib.TcHmiAxServerClass)(tchmi)).acceptDrops' threw an exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' bool {System.InvalidCastException}

- enabled '((TcHmiCreatorLib.TcHmiAxServerClass)(tchmi)).enabled' threw an exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' bool {System.InvalidCastException}
- FocusPolicy '((TcHmiCreatorLib.TcHmiAxServerClass)(tchmi)).FocusPolicy' threw an exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' TcHmiCreatorLib.FocusPolicy {System.InvalidCastException}
- font '((TcHmiCreatorLib.TcHmiAxServerClass)(tchmi)).font' threw an exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' stdole.IFontDisp {System.InvalidCastException}
..

..
etc.
@
Any idea how to fix this?
