[Problem/Bug]: Host object's methods can't be called in case IDispatch has no type info

Open alervd opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

What happened?

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open WebView2APISample sample in Visual Studio.
  2. Modify HostObjectSample::GetTypeInfoCount and HostObjectSample::GetTypeInfo to just return E_NOTIMPL.
  3. Launch application, go to Scenario | Host Objects and try to Invoke Method.

Result: HostObjectSample::Invoke is invoked with DISPATCH_PROPERTYGET instead of DISPATCH_METHOD. Thus the method can't be called.

WebView2 knows that it's calling a method and should use DISPATCH_METHOD accordingly. It should not require IDispatch implementations to provide ITypeInfo. It works fine in Internet Explorer's IWebBrowser2.

Importance

Blocking. My app's basic functions are not working due to this issue.
