Use COM Object from DLL without register

c++, com, dll

Solution

Yes, if it does not rely internally on other registered objects.

- You `LoadLibrary` the DLL

- You `GetProcAddress` its `DllGetClassObject`

- You call `DllGetClassObject` to obtain `IClassFactory` pointer for `CLSID` of interest

- You are good to go with `IClassFactory::CreateInstance` and instantiate the coclass
