.NET Forum / Languages / C# / November 2007Create .NET Interface definitions for COM
I am trying to implement the interfaces (well, actually create the COM Interop interface definitions first), but am unsure how to create the interface.cs files needed. The interfaces in particular I need right now are IE7 interfaces IInternetSecurityManagerEx and IInternetSecurityManagerEx2. I found that IInternetSecurityManagerEx is defined in the IDL file for UrlMon.IDL - so is there an automated mechanism for creating the many CS assembly files for a particular interface? IInternetSecurityManagerEx2 seems to only be defined on MSDN and I can't find the C# code for the interface definition... Bogey, You could use the MIDL compiler and compile the IDL file into a type library, and then use TLBIMP to import the definition. However, I think doing it by hand is a better idea. These definitions look pretty simple, so I would recommend creating them by hand as well. You might want to check out the section of the MSDN documentation titled "Exposing COM Components to the .NET Framework ", located at: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/z6tx9dw3(VS.80).aspx To help you with creating the definitions of the interfaces in code.

Trouble with the interfaces I'm particularly interested in, is that running MIDL on UrlMon.IDL does not generate a TLB (even using the TLB option). I was hoping for a less manual approach. I had already Google'd that reference you mentioned, but thanks nonetheless. There's also the problem that I can't even find the documentation (or the GUID) for IInternetSecurityManagerEx2. In the online docs, it talks about using SID_IInternetSecurityManagerEx2 in QueryService, but I can't actually find a definition for that constant. tonyB.
