Hi,

I wrote an Exchange EventSink in VC++ and installed it on my system.
The sink implements the OnSyncSave() method and also an own dummy method
Test().
I told the component manager to unload the DLL after one minute of
inactivity. If I call the method Test(), I can see that the DLL is loaded
into memory and after one minute it is unloaded. If one event fired
OnSyncSave() I can see that the DLL is loaded an if I only read the
affected record it is also unloaded after one minute, but my EventSink
also needs information about the parent folder of the item that fires the
event. So I create a connection and a record to read the folder attributes.
After that the DLL did not unload after one minute. Why?

I do a Close() on the created record and connection object.

More confusing is the fact that if I call Test() after that, the DLL
unloads again after one minute.

What's wrong?
Andrew

Oh, it has automatic drive transmission so it can be driven by You;) (You have
got a real luck;) )

1.Becouse You haven't heard about inline debugging (using fprintf and so on...)?
2.Becouse You haven't heard about catching exceptions from interfaces anywhere?

1.The serious problem has probably materna.de by employing not properly prepared
"programmer" for self-solving simple task. ( maybe outsourcing???;) )
2.Maybe sending the offer to "IT-Service-Management" team solve someone's
finanacial problems...?;)

Conclusion: Try to self-debug the way of thinking about solving problems.

Tester.

There occures no exception. I know it, because I catch all kinds and use
inline debugging (fprintf and so on...).

The best answer for the useless information You have provided which "describes
Your problem" - in Your opinion. You **request** help from the worldwide for
**free** not providing any useful information to interest anyone.
Your request is something like: "My car is out of order. How to fix it?. I have
a couple of tools in the **black box** in the garage, HELP!!!"

1. Can't You confirm that you return from EventSink procedure and You are not in
endless loop ? (becouse of re-firing event in Your EventSink Procedure code??? -
do a simple counter to confirm if You can't do in other way)
2. Can't You confirm that you destroy all objects after their job to release the
App from memo ?
3. Can't You just snap-in Your "super-classified-code" instead of writing any
baby-tales about unloadable events?
You have the bug for sure or You can't check the code You've written...

The best help You can get is from Yourself , becouse only You know what You've
written in Your code.

Bye.
