I really could use me a exe com server nowadays.
Let me explain:
I have this importtool making contact with all kind of databases.
Some of these drivers have the habbit to crash the appication in some cases.
This can be due an incorrect statement (solvable) but also due (unpredictable) memory issues etc etc..
I have the feeling such a com server may crash while it won't drag the application along.
We have a separate executable right now but with a poor communication interface.
Maybe i am wrong that such an exe com server will not collapse the calling application.
And no, please no discussion how i should prevent the crashes by writing 'better' code.., once you experiance these poor drivers you'll cover yourself as well.

Is it possible with some alternative code to extend the current com support?
