Java Scenario with No Duplicate

} } } if (!bFoundDuplicate) { // Okay we're looking at some sort of Java scenario. We have a distribution unit, but // no corresponding entry in the COM branch. This generally means we've got a DU that // consists of java packages. It can also mean that we're dealing with a java/code download // backgound introduced in IE3. In this case, an Object tag gets a CAB downloaded that // installs Java classes and sets a CLSID that invokes MSJava.dll on the class ( ESPN's // sportszone control/applet works this way ). In the first case, we // squared-away when we parse the DU. In the latter case, we need to try and pick the name // up from the COM branch. hr = pccfd->AddListItem( "", szDUName, TRUE ); if ( FAILED(hr) ) { lResult = ERROR_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY; goto EXIT_FINDFIRSTCONTROL; } } // if no duplicate - add DU to the list

A screenshot shows dense legacy C/C++ source code discussing Java distribution units, COM branches, CAB downloads, and memory errors. The joke comes from presenting an extremely technical, outdated code comment as a meme, fitting reactions to confusing programming discussions, reverse engineering, or overwhelming documentation.
