Abelardo, There are two issues here: 1. Currently Comet does not make use of the wrapper classes structs. That is tlb2h.exe does not generate structs with...

If I understand what you are saying, you want to be able to get at the underlying C++ object given a COM Interface pointer? Here is a trick that comes from ATL...
