Missing functions when doing CLI->COM dll. C++ project can't see all functions.

[HiddenHandX]

My goal is to make Java classes accessible to both C# and C++.

After doing what I did, the C# project cant see and use non-static methods the methods that the C++ project can't see and use anything.

1. How to make the methods viewable to the VC++ project?

2. How to use HRESULT and turn it into StubRequest so that I can use it?



---------- Initialiser.java ----------

package com.zzz.lib;
import cli.System.Runtime.InteropServices.*;
@ClassInterfaceAttribute.Annotation(ClassInterfaceType.__Enum.AutoDual)
public class Initialiser {
public static void initialise(){
System.out.println("init");
}
}

--------------------


---------- StubRequest.java ----------

package com.zzz.lib;
import cli.System.Runtime.InteropServices.*;
@ClassInterfaceAttribute.Annotation(ClassInterfaceType.__Enum.AutoDual)
public class StubRequest {
public StubRequest(){
System.out.println("new StubRequest");
}

public void doSomething(){
System.out.println("do something!!!");
}
}

--------------------


With these 2 testing Java files, I ran the batch file:


---------- buildTest.bat ----------

C:\ikvmc\bin\ikvmc\ikvmstub mscorlib

javac -source 1.7 -target 1.7 -cp mscorlib.jar;. src\com\zzz\lib\Initialiser.java
javac -source 1.7 -target 1.7 -cp mscorlib.jar;. src\com\zzz\lib\StubRequest.java

C:\ikvmc\bin\ikvmc -out:TestZ.dll src\com\zzz\lib\Initialiser.class src\com\zzz\lib\StubRequest.class -r:mscorlib.dll

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v10.0A\bin\NETFX 4.6.1 Tools\TlbExp.exe" TestZ.dll

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\RegAsm.exe /codebase:TestZ.dll

copy /Y TestZ.dll C:\Users\Dev\Documents\Xamarin\TestDLL\ConsoleApplication1\Debug\TestZ.dll
copy /Y TestZ.dll C:\Users\Dev\Documents\Xamarin\TestDLL\ConsoleApplication1\TestZ.dll

copy /Y *.tlb C:\Users\Dev\Documents\Xamarin\TestDLL\ConsoleApplication1\Debug\*.tlb
copy /Y *.tlb C:\Users\Dev\Documents\Xamarin\TestDLL\ConsoleApplication1\*.tlb

--------------------


In the C# project, after importing TestZ.dll and IKVM's OpenJDK dlls...

---------- Program.cs ----------

using com.zzz.lib;

namespace CSTestZ
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Initialiser.initialise();
StubRequest stubRequest = new StubRequest();
stubRequest.doSomething();
}
}
}

--------------------


Meanwhile, in the C++ application, I am unable to get anything going.

---------- ConsoleApplication.cpp ----------

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <cstring>
#include <string>
#include <windows.h>
#include "tchar.h"
#include "Initialiser.h" //empty file

#import "TestZ.tlb" raw_interfaces_only

using namespace TestZ;


int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
// Initialize COM.
HRESULT hr = CoInitialize(NULL);

// Create the interface pointer.
//InitialiserPtr ptr(__uuidof(Initialiser));
_InitialiserPtr initPtr(__uuidof(Initialiser));

_StubRequestPtr stubPtr(__uuidof(StubRequest));
initPtr->initialise(); //error: class "TestZ::_Initialiser" has no member "initialise"

HRESULT stubRequest = stubPtr.CreateInstance(__uuidof(StubRequest));
//how to use stubRequest into a StubRequest Object?

CoUninitialize();
return 0;
}

I see that there are
