I just noticed that both the CreateObject and CreateObjectEx functions
now include an optional last parameter that supports registration-free
COM. For example, below is the documentation for CreateObjectEx. Does
anyone know of an example of using that parameter in a JAWS script?
From my reading of MSDN, the syntax of such a manifest file is complex
and easy to get wrong, so a JAWS-oriented example would really help.

Function: CreateObjectEx
Description
In applications such as Internet Explorer or those found in Microsoft
Office, launches an application under the control of JAWS, which is the
automation object. The difference between CreateObject and GetObject is
that GetObject creates a pointer to an automation object that already
exists, whereas CreateObject creates the automation object for the
application.
Returns
Type: Object
Description: The automation object associated with the program.
Parameters
Param 1:
Type: String
Description: Name of the COM class that can return an automation object.
Include: Required
Param 2:
Type: Int
Description: TRUE = Same behavior as CreateObject. FALSE = Will always
force the use of CoCreateInstance instead of using GetObjectHelper when
JAWS is running as a service.
Include: Required
Param 3:
Type: string
Description: name of the manifest file that contains the Registration
Free COM information or the name of a .dll with a manifest embedded as a
resource. Providing this parameter allows creation of an object that
hasn't been registered. This parameter is supported in JAWS 10.0 and
beyond More information can be found at http://msdn.microsoft.com by
searching for "Registration Free COM"
Include: Optional
