VC++: Error generating teechart2018.tlh

[Patrick]

Hi,

We try to update our application to current TeeChart ActiveX 2018. With TeeChart ActiveX v5 it was possible to let VC++ automatically generate the needed typelib headers like this:

Code: Select all

#import "TeeChart5.ocx" named_guids, rename("LoadImage","TeeChartLoadImage"), rename("TextOut","TeeChartTextOut")

We tried the same with TeeChart ActiveX 2018:

Code: Select all

#import "TeeChart2018.ocx" named_guids, rename("LoadImage","TeeChartLoadImage"), rename("TextOut","TeeChartTextOut")

but we get compile errors.

Code: Select all

error C2259: 'TeeChart::ITeeBasePath': cannot instantiate abstract class
error C2259: 'TeeChart::ITeePoint2D': cannot instantiate abstract class
error C2365: 'TeeChart::IMapPolygon::GetPoints': redefinition; previous definition was 'data member'
error C2063: 'TeeChart::IMapPolygon::GetPoints': not a function
error C2350: 'TeeChart::IMapPolygon::GetPoints' is not a static member

This is very easy to reproduce, simply create an Win32 VC++ project and put the import statement above into stdafx.h

How can I generate the typelib headers with current TeeChart ActiveX 2018?

Hello Patrick,

you can find all the TeeChart ActiveX 2018 typelib header file under the "\Utilities\New VC Classes" folder of the TeeChart installation.

These are for MFC, right? We are using ATL though.

All the best,
Patrick
