GraphEdt.exe and Vista...

I've been working on some COPP related code sample on Vista, I could not see the graph I had built. Was this because I was using the EVR instead of the VMR9 as I was on XP?

Well no. I read Loading a Graph From an External Process and registered Proppage.dll.

This was still not working.

As usual when using developer tools, I launched graphedt.exe as an administrator and voilĂ !

#pragma once

//********************************************************************************

//* RunningObjectTableFilterEntry class: this will alow us to see the graph with

//* Note Starting in Windows Vista, you must register proppage.dll

//* to enable this feature. Proppage.dll is included in the Windows SDK.
