In the class StubRequest, I have a method doSomething().

1. How do I convert HRESULT into StubRequest
2. How do I call the doSomething() method?

using namespace TestZ;


int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
	// Initialize COM.
	HRESULT hr = CoInitialize(NULL);

	// Create the interface pointer.
	_StubRequestPtr stubPtr(__uuidof(StubRequest));
	_StubRequestPtr stubRequest = stubPtr.CreateInstance(__uuidof(StubRequest));
	
	stubRequest->doSomething();//causes error. when all it does is to print to console.
	CoUninitialize();
	return 0;

An HRESULT is just an integer indicating whether the function failed and, if it did, what the error was.

I recommend searching for a tutorial on COM programming.
