SUMMARY
The Cautoex samples illustrate how to write a simple OLE Automation
component (Cauto) and simple Automation controller (Cautocon) in C.
The following file is available for download from the Microsoft

NOTE: After downloading Cautoex.exe, use the -d option to extract the files
so that they go into the correct directory structure. In other words, place
Cautoex.exe in an empty directory, and run it by using this command:
cautoex -d
MORE INFORMATION
Cautoex.exe contains the following two sample applications:
- Cauto is a local OLE Automation component sample application written in
C. It contains a dialog box that prompts for text and a position to
display that text on the main window. It exports, using OLE Automation,
the text property as well as methods to get and set the position of the
text and to refresh the main window of the component. A dual interface
is used to support all of the automation. This dual interface is
described in the object definition language file CAUTO\cauto.odl.
IDispatch::GetIdsOfNames and IDispatch::Invoke simply call
DispGetIDsOfNames and DispInvoke respectively.
- Cautocon is a simple OLE Automation controller written in C that
controls the Cauto application. There is a dialog that prompts for text
and position. Cautocon then uses OLE Automation to draw that text at the
appropriate position on the component's main window. This dialog box is
activated by clicking Set on the Text menu. It is loaded with the text
and position from the component's main window each time it is activated.
