I am writing a Com server, and I wrote code that detects a situation where the COM client was unexpectedly closed, in which case I have to close the COM server inside the COM server code.
How can i do this?
UPD: I have situations where the COM server hanged or, rather, I can’t connect to the COM server from the COM client, but the application containing the COM server is alive, so I think the COM server can detect that all old COM clients were disconnected / closed / worked, and the application will restart as new clients are not connected.
I write the following code in a COM client in a separate thread
while(not we are closing)
{
unknown->QueryInterface(IComServer, &server);
if (server)
return;
}
so that the COM client can wait until the server is really ready to work
UPD2: just tested: after 12 minutes my COM server was closed
