Problem creating simple "windows script components" on Windows 7.
- by Bigtoe
Hi folks, I'm trying to get a Windows Script Component working on and x64 development machine. Works fine on x32 bit. But can't seem to get it running, I have the same problem with both JScript and VBScript.
Here's the most simple wsc component possible. All that it does it pop up "Hello" in a message box. If you save the snippit below to a file called test_lib.wsc, you'll then be able to right click and register it. It's now available as a COM Component.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<component>
<?component error="true" debug="true"?>
<registration
description="Test Script Library"
progid="TestScript.Lib"
version="1.00"
classid="{314042ea-1c42-4865-956f-08d56d1f00a8}"
>
</registration>
<public>
<method name="Hello">
</method>
</public>
<script language="VBScript">
<![CDATA[
Option Explicit
Function Hello()
MsgBox("Hello.")
End Function
]]>
</script>
</component>
Next create the following sample vb-script and save it to a file called test.vbs
dim o
set o = createobject("TestScript.Lib")
o.hello()
When I run the test.vbs with cscript or wscript I always get the following.
"C:\test.vbs(3, 1) Microsoft VBScript runtime error: ActiveX component can't create object: 'TestScript.Lib'"
This works perfectly fine on a 32 bit XP.
Anyone got any ideas about what could be wrong?
Thanks a bunch
Noel.
