Hi,

I've created 2 C# serviced components in a COM+ App dll. I register them and
they both work fine and unload OK when called from a VBScript, but when I
use one's object variable reference as an argument to the other in a method,
ie: (3rd line):

Set objvar1 = createobject ("My.Obj1")
Set objvar2 = createobject ("My.Obj2")
objvar1.objarg(objvar2)

then My.Obj1 won't unload when the script ends. It will, however, unload it
if I call:

Set objvar1.Dispose

but I would like VBScript to naturally unload it. My.Obj1 component locks a
file while it is running, and doesn't close it and unlock it until its
destructor is called, so the file remains locked and inaccessible. If my
VBScript happens to run into an unhandled error, then, and I cannot dispose
of the first object and this file remains locked for good (until I stop the
COM+ app)

I'm guessing this error has to do with remoting (object marshalling) or the
way COM+ handles objects passed as arguments, but I don't know beyond it.

Any way this can be fixed?

Workaround so far:

I created an additional public class within the namespace of the com+ app
which is not a serviced component. I use its methods and properties instead
of my service components, eg:

Set objvar1 = createobject ("My.Obj1")
Set objvar2 = createobject ("My.Obj2")
objvar1.objarg(objvar2.obj2)

objvar1 now accepts this class instead of objvar2 in its objarg method.

I don't like the syntax, I was hoping I could do it as I had written it
before. If anybody has a better idea, please post.
