Re: How to host a *ActiveX control hosted in IE*?
Most controls implement IPersistStreamInit (note no controls
I know of implement IPersistStream - it's kind of prohibited
for ActiveX Controls) in addition to IPeristPropertyBag.
If you need to implement support for IPersistPropertyBag,
implementing IPropertyBag is relatively straightforward...

ActiveX control can support several kind of IPersist* interface.
However, from IE's perspective, it prefer IPersistPropertyBag since the
persistent info for ActiveX control hosted in IE comes from <param>
tag. HTML is plain text. It is not surprsing that IE prefer ActiveX
control to support IPropertyBag which stores plain text of
property-value pair.
The problem is that CAxWindow/CAxHostWindow create ActiveX only with
IStream. That is, It expects hosted ActiveX control supports
IPersistStream. It is a gap between IE and ATL.
How can I host a ActiveX control expected to be run in IE(i.e. only
support IPersistPropertyBag) with ATL? Should I modify some ATL code?
or is there any better way?
Thanks
