Multi instances COM object

I use a C++ written COM object in C#. I just create instance through "new". I need numerous of such objects. But every other "new" doesn't create new instance, but only gives reference on first object. Thats why I have a mess with data. Is it possible to get new instance every time? Or I should realize IClassFactory in my COM to instantiate not singleton? I've made COM with master in VC 2010 with ATL support. And I have a trouble where and how to realize IClassFactory.

You need to implement IUnknown, IClassFactory. Depending on what you're doing you may want to implement IDispatch and IErrorInfo as well. It's quite involved so I won't go into the details here. The following three articles should cover pretty much everything that you are after:

  1. Step by Step COM Tutorial
  2. Understanding Classic COM Interoperability With .NET Applications
  3. Fundamentals of ATL COM Objects
