iMacros EOL - Attention!

The renewal maintenance has officially ended for Progress iMacros effective November 20, 2023 and all versions of iMacros are now considered EOL (End-of-Life). The iMacros products will no longer be supported by Progress (aside from customer license issues), and these forums will also no longer be moderated from the Progress side.

Thank you again for your business and support.

Problems using the Eclipse Plugin

Post by MattBell7 » Thu Nov 26, 2009 11:14 am

Tried to post this on the thread for the Eclipse plugin, but it wouldnt let me.
http://forum.imacros.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2703

I've followed the instructions within the thread, but i get the following error when i try to execute the code.

org.jawin.COMException: 800401f3: Invalid class string

at org.jawin.marshal.GenericStub.win32Invoke0(Native Method)
at org.jawin.marshal.GenericStub.win32Invoke(GenericStub.java:66)
at org.jawin.win32.Ole32.CLSIDFromProgID(Ole32.java:60)
at org.jawin.win32.Ole32.GetFromProgID(Ole32.java:49)
at org.jawin.DispatchPtr.<init>(DispatchPtr.java:51)
at iMacrosTest.main(iMacrosTest.java:14)

Anyone else get this error? or know how to fix it?

I'm using IBM Rational Software Architect, which is built on eclipse, so that shouldnt make a difference...

As we need the Scripting Interface: do you have the iMacros software installed?
Can you post a minimal code sample the produces that error?

The error is thrown initialising app.

Ole32.CoInitialize();
DispatchPtr app = new DispatchPtr("imacros");

I currently have the Firefox plugin installed, but not the scripting version, now you mention it, it does seem sensible that this wont work without it installed.

If possible can you confirm this for me, then i can use it to convince my boss to let me have the scripting version.

It indeed is the Scripting Interface that is missing. You can test that with the free trial available at http://iopus.com/download/imacros/.
