COM beginner question

[ScapinVS]

Hi there,

i have a COM newbie question...

I want to use the following COM object in my code:

hr = ADsGetObject( L"WinNT://myMachine", IID_IADsContainer, (void**)&pCont);

OK...

I do the following include:

#include <iads.h>
#include <Adshlp.h>

and I link to Activeds.lib

But when I compile I get the following output:

ADSTestDlg.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _IID_IADs
ADSTestDlg.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _IID_IADsContainer

(These are the only error messages I get)

So, my question is: What else do I have to bind to my program to get it compiled?

Thanks a lot,
Scapin

Thanks. Works fine now by adding the following lines to my source code (definition of the CLSIDs):

const IID IID_IADs = {0xFD8256D0, 0xFD15, 0x11CE, {0xAB,0xC4,0x02,0x60,0x8C,0x9E,0x75,0x53}};
const IID IID_IADsContainer = {0xFD8256D0, 0xFD15, 0x11CE, {0xAB,0xC4,0x02,0x60,0x8C,0x9E,0x75,0x53}};
