This is a complete implementation of OLE Automation support for GVim.


1. Files
--------

if_ole.cpp, if_ole.idl	source files
proto/if_ole.pro	prototypes
if_ole_vc.mak		makefile
../doc/if_ole.txt	documentation


2. Compiling from the command line
----------------------------------

Just one command should do it all:

	nmake /f if_ole_vc.mak


3. Updating the VC project manually
-----------------------------------

Start Visual Studio and load in the standard Vim makefile Gvim_vc.mak.  Make
sure it's in dos fileformat, not in Unix.  I'm using Visual C++ 5.  The
instructions may not match exactly for VC 4 (in fact, it may not be possible
to build with VC4 - I'm not sure. Should be, though...)

Add if_ole.cpp and if_ole.idl to the project.

Add HAVE_OLE to the list of defines for the build process (I suppose this
could go in feature.h, but the other interface code - Python and Perl - don't
go in there).  Also add HAVE_OLE to the list of defines for the resources.

Add a custom build step for if_ole.idl (right click on the file, and select
Settings...)

	Description: Generating OLE Interface
	Command: midl /tlb vim.tlb /iid iid_ole.c
		      /proxy nul /header if_ole.h $(InputPath)
	Output files: iid_ole.c, if_ole.h, vim.tlb

(the command is all on one line).

Add libraries ole32.lib, oleaut32.lib, uuid.lib to the project
settings, Link tab, Object/library modules.

That's it (I think).  Build.

Let me know if there are any problems.
