[JDEV] C++ and JabberCOM.dll

[David Waite]

Is this just with a raw import, or with code trying to use JabberCOM? ATL
(which is basically what you are using with the import) does not support
creating new objects with anything as simple as 'new'. I believe there is a
CreateObject instead.

Of course, I'm probably way off base - my COM/OLE skills are very purposely
getting rusty  :)
