I get this error in the EditorFactory.CreateEditorInstance() method and this
line is the cause:

ppunkDocView = Marshal.GetIUnknownForObject(newEditor);

At first it first great, what's wrong now that it doesn't work anymore.
I'm using Visual C# (Version 2003)

Thanks!

Hi Himo,

What is newEditor defined as? I presume it's a class that derives from
IVsWindowPane and IOleCommandTarget at a minumum.

This class is generated by the VSIP package wizard and newEditor is a
standard code editor as made by the template, deriving from these classes:

public class EditorPane : System.Windows.Forms.UserControl,
        IVsPersistDocData,
        IPersistFileFormat,
        IOleCommandTarget,
        IVsWindowPane,
        IVsFindTarget,
        IVsDocDataFileChangeControl,
        IVsFileChangeEvents

So the editor is called like this:
EditorPane newEditor = new EditorPane(myPackage); where myPackage is a VSIP
package.

The error I get is in public class EditorFactory, which inherits from
IVsEditorFactory.
And the strange thing is that my package does work in debug mode. I already
signed this package with a PLK and run it with the /noVSIP parameter.

I also noticed when handling all the errors by the IDE, that it also errors
along these lines with a COMException:

//
            // EditorPane
            //
                this.Controls.Add(this.tabControl1);
                this.Name = "EditorPane";
                this.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(632, 600);
                this.Load += new System.EventHandler(this.EditorPane_Load)
                ((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.WebBrowser)).EndInit();<---- Probably this is the cause, a strongnamed AxShDocVw
                this.tabControl1.ResumeLayout(false); <--- Errors here
                this.DesignPage.ResumeLayout(false);
                this.DesignMenuItems.ResumeLayout(false);
                this.ProgressDialog.ResumeLayout(false);
                this.PreviewPage.ResumeLayout(false);
                this.XMLCodePage.ResumeLayout(false);
                this.ResumeLayout(false);
