Hi,
What components do i need to make use of a com object. I
have an app that uses a logitech quickcam. I used the
logitech SDK to integrate the cam into my application. I
have to register the dll using regsvr32.exe. I have also
componentized the camera drivers. I can see the cam in
explorer, and it functions. But, my app cannot seem to
establish a connection with the cam in the embedded image.

any ideas?

Darren,

I thought Explorer App component already has dependencies on Ole32 related
components. Also, regsvr32.exe imports ole32 as well.
You may want to test COM with a com sample from MSDN.

Also, if your app does not work and you did not mention the com error(s) you
saw, you may either debug the app (VS/remote debugger) or monitor its
activities with FileMon/RegMon tools (www.sysinternals.com).

Darren,

I had problems getting a Logitech camera installed on my
XPE image -- missing inf section. After a bunch of
research in Setupapi.log, etc., it turned out I had not
included the "Still Image" base class component, "USB
Digital Camera".

Hoping this helps, Roy
