Dear WinDev forum,
I've been tasked with reading in information from a 3rd party device (fingerprint scanner). This device is connected to my computer via an ethernet cable.
I have created a socket to communicate with this object and am now trying to declare the fingerprint scanner as a COMObject. To do so I need to retrieve the GUID for this object, however I do not know how to retrieve the GUID for an object connected via ethernet cable. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
I am currently using WinDev20, if you need any more information feel free to ask. Thank you in advance for your help!
Sincerely,
James |

Hi James,
If you can already work and talk with the scanner, why do you need any com object?
A com object is... an object declared on the PC coming from a set of DLL that should have been provided with your device as a developer kit. Once this OCX/DLL file is installed you "can" register it with regsvr32 and use the objects. Then you can make a small search in the registry to find out the class ID if you can't get it (or maybe use WDXView provided with WinDev?)
Best regards,
Alexandre Leclerc |
