I am trying to implement the SetEndCallback method in a VBScript instead of polling. There doesn't seem to be any examples of implementing this method. Also in the help documentation, the proto takes on the form:


boolean FastHenry2Object.SetEndCallback(IDispatch* callback, BSTR cbName)


How could I implement this C-style function proto into a VBScript subroutine or function?

Thanks

You can find an example of implementation of the callback function in the "VisualBasic" sample folder. Actually the implementation is simpler than you expect, as you 'just' need to pass a VB class reference and class function name as callback arguments as below, where "Callback" is my user-defined class (syntax of the prototype is closer to C++ but that's Automation)

Dim callbackObj As New Callback

Private Sub CheckEndCallback_Click()
    ' If checked
    If CheckEndCallback.Value = 1 Then
        ' Set a callback function to be called upon FastCap2 end of simulation
        vResult = FastCap2.SetEndCallback(callbackObj, "FastCapEndCallback")
    Else
        ' Set no callback
        vResult = FastCap2.SetEndCallback(Nothing, "FastCapEndCallback")
    End If
End Sub


This is not straigthforward, instead, in case you need to implement it in VBA (VisualBasic for Applications) or VBS (VisualBasic Scripting) as there are limits in what you can do in these VB profiles.

You may have some luck and insight looking at ht*p://alax.info/blog/1381 I have not tested these methods, but this could be a way you may experiment.
