  1. A COM implementation of the KSpace A ‘Knowledge Space prototype’ by Santhosh (vpanchap@hotmail.com) CST UMKC

  2. Start End Presentation Layout • The DAL system and the KSpace • KSpace: COM and XML • KSpace: Implementation details

  3. Start End The DAL System • Introduction to the DAL system • Distributed • Adaptive • Learning system • DAL System components • Learner Space, Knowledge Space, Presentation Space (E-Game, E-Book)

  4. Start End The Knowledge Space • KSpace – A part of the DAL system • KSpace – A ‘Data storage and retrieval' component • Features expected of the KSpace • Distributed environment (Concurrency, Synchronization, Fault tolerance …)

  5. Start End KSpace: COM and XML (1/2) • COM features implemented by the KSpace prototype • Component developed as a DLL • Provides support for • ‘Self-Registration’ • ‘Type-libraries’ • ‘Multithreading’ clients • ‘Automation’, Dual interface • ‘Exception handling’

  6. Start End KSpace: COM and XML (2/2) • XML and the KSpace • MSXML parser • DOM API • Provides support for • Creating, reading, writing XML documents

  7. Start KSpace Client 1. Create XML file 2. Write to XML file 3. Read from XML file KSpace Component 1. Set up environment (Type libraries and Automation) 2. Serve client XML requests KSpace query Exceptions / Client service results End Implementation details (1/3) • Concept Map

  8. Start End Implementation details (2/3) • Sample scenario (Connection establishment) • Scan registry for server component GUID • Load DLL into memory if component exists in the form of a DLL, else instantiate executable component (use DLL surrogate if needed) • Get address of class object factory • Instantiate class factory • Create instantiate of KSpace server component

  9. Start End Implementation details (3/3) • KSpace Component interfaces • IUnknown (AddRef, Release, QueryInterface) • IXMLInterface (Create, Read, Write) • ISupportErrorInfo (InterfaceSupportsErrorInfo) • ICreateErrorInfo (SetGUID, SetSource, SetDescription, SetHelpFile, SetHelpContext) • IClassFactory (CreateInstance, LockServer)

  10. Start End Conclusion: The KSpace prototype • Experience gained • COM and XML • Windows programming (Registries, DLLs, HRESULTS, GUIDs, Threading Apartments …) • References • “Inside COM” by “Dale Rogerson” published “1997 by the Microsoft press” • “Inside Distributed COM” by “Guy Eddon” and “Henry Eddon” published “1998 by the Microsoft press”. • “Inside COM+” by “Guy Eddon” and “Henry Eddon” published “1999 by the Microsoft press” • Programming language, Environment • VC++, Win 2000 • XML SDK
