Hello

I have simple native c++ console app that uses the IMetaDataDispenserEx
interface. I first developed it using VC++ Express 2005 Beta1, Windows
XP, Framework 2.0 beta where it works just fine.

I'm now trying to get it to work using VS 6, Windows NT 4, Framework 1.1

here's a very cut down version of the code:

cor.h is the version that comes with VS.net 2003

why do I get this error and what does it mean (errlookup doesn't know
0x80131107)

thanks
Ben

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "cor.h"

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    CoInitialize(0);
    IMetaDataDispenserEx* _pMetaDataDispenser = NULL;
    IMetaDataImport* _pMetaDataImport = NULL;
    HRESULT hr = NULL;

//this works
    hr = CoCreateInstance(    CLSID_CorMetaDataDispenser,
        0,
    CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,
    IID_IMetaDataDispenserEx,
    reinterpret_cast< void** >(&_pMetaDataDispenser )    );

//this returns 0x80131107
    hr = _pMetaDataDispenser->OpenScope(    L"c:\\folder\\file.exe"            
,0,IID_IMetaDataImport,
            reinterpret_cast<IUnknown**> (&_pMetaDataImport)
                                                );
CoUninitialize();
}
