Description
What happened?
Steps to reproduce:
- Open
WebView2APISamplesample in Visual Studio. - Modify
HostObjectSample::GetTypeInfoCountandHostObjectSample::GetTypeInfoto just return E_NOTIMPL. - Launch application, go to Scenario | Host Objects and try to Invoke Method.
Result: HostObjectSample::Invoke is invoked with DISPATCH_PROPERTYGET instead of DISPATCH_METHOD. Thus the method can't be called.
WebView2 knows that it's calling a method and should use DISPATCH_METHOD accordingly. It should not require IDispatch implementations to provide ITypeInfo. It works fine in Internet Explorer's IWebBrowser2.
Importance
Blocking. My app's basic functions are not working due to this issue.
