I'm using IWebBrowser2 control in my application to display external web pages. The problem is that the object is not safe for scripting and calls to get_Document fails (with S_FALSE as return value).
I've implemented a new class, IScriptableWebBrowser2 that inherits both from IWebBrowser2 & IObjectSafety, and tried to use it instead of IWebBrowser2 but that didn't do the trick.
How do I make my IWebBrowser2 control safe for scripting ?
class IScriptableWebBrowser2 :
public CComObjectRootEx<CComSingleThreadModel>,
public IWebBrowser2,
public IObjectSafety
{
BEGIN_COM_MAP(IScriptableWebBrowser2)
COM_INTERFACE_ENTRY(IObjectSafety)
END_COM_MAP()
// IObjectSafety implementation
STDMETHODIMP GetInterfaceSafetyOptions(REFIID riid,
DWORD *pdwSupportedOptions,
DWORD *pdwEnabledOptions )
{
*pdwSupportedOptions = INTERFACESAFE_FOR_UNTRUSTED_CALLER |
INTERFACESAFE_FOR_UNTRUSTED_DATA;
*pdwEnabledOptions = *pdwSupportedOptions;
return S_OK;
}
STDMETHODIMP SetInterfaceSafetyOptions(REFIID riid, DWORD dwOptionSetMask, DWORD dwEnabledOptions)
{
return S_OK;
}
};
Well, I finally had some time to come back to this one..
It turns out that get_Document fails if you call it BEFORE the page completely loaded but the return value (S_FALSE) indicates a completely different error ("not safe for scripting")
btw, Loading local pages will give you the desirable behavior.
Therefore, calling get_Document after the page was loaded (DISPID_NAVIGATECOMPLETE2, DISPID_DOWNLOADCOMPLETE, DISPID_DOCUMENTCOMPLETE) will do the trick.
Hope this helps.
