I picked the third one: #include <oh/auto_link.hpp> in MyValueObject.h.

Finally, some good news (thanks to your holy patience and hints, Eric).

This seems to be the the first working step:

#include <iostream>
#include <exception>
#include "MyValueObject.h"

void makeObject(
        const std::string& objectID)
{
    boost::shared_ptr< ObjectHandler::ValueObject > valueObject(new MyValueObject(objectID, "", false));
    boost::shared_ptr< ObjectHandler::Object > object(new ObjectHandler::Object(valueObject, false));
    ObjectHandler::Repository::instance().storeObject(objectID, object, true);
};

std::string getObject(
        const std::string& objectID) const
{
        boost::shared_ptr< ObjectHandler::Object > object;
        ObjectHandler::Repository::instance().retrieveObject(object, objectID);
        boost::shared_ptr< ObjectHandler::ValueObject > valueObject = object->properties();
        return valueObject->objectId();
};

int main()
{
        try
        {
                ObjectHandler::Repository repository;
                makeObject("Object1");
                std::cout << getObject("Object1");
        }
        catch(const std::exception &e)
        {
                std::cout << "Exception " << e.what() << std::endl;
                return 1;
        }
        catch(...)
        {
                std::cout << "Exception" << std::endl;
                return 1;
        }
}

Runtime gives "Object1", which is the proper ID :)

Now it's time to see how it works in Excel... thank you!
