FreeBasic COM servers

[James Fuller]

Jose & Paul,
  With Paul's parsing expertise and Jose's COM knowledge would it be possible to write wrappers for the creation of COM servers with FreeBasic?
The two features I feel make PowerBASIC far superior to all other products is it's dead code removal and the ease of creating COM servers.
It appears PRIVATE solves the first? Now on to the next?

Like with PowerBasic, I much prefer the use of include files. Unless you intend to write code to be used by other compilers, include files are much more convenient. Just one version and it works both with 32 & 64 bit. The work that I have began to do with COM is for using existing technologies, no to create new ones. I learned COM programming because 2/3 of Windows is COM, but never have writen a COM server because there are other ways that I prefer. I'm doing this for fun and writing code that is only usable with FreeBasic.
