Problem:

• Product Name: Visibroker for C
• Product Version:5.2.1/6.x
• Product Component: EventChannelFactory in Event Service component
• Platform: Windows2000

Can we use EventChannel in VBE5.x and VBE6.x?

Resolution:

We do support EventChannelFactory in VBE5.x, 6.0, 6.5. OMG does not defined EventChannelFactory in CosEventChannelAdmin module.
With Event Service, EventChannelFactory was proprietary to Borland, and we misplace this proprietary interface in OMG module.
So we have fixed this in VBE6.5. That means to say that in VBE6.5, users will not have any trouble compiling their applications using EventChannelFactory.
If customer needs to use EventChannelFactory from VBE5.x Event Service,

CosEventChannelAdmin::EventChannelFactory_ptr factory = CosEventChannelAdmin::EventChannelFactory::_narrow(obj);
