CLSIDFromString

Converts a string generated by the StringFromCLSID function back into the original CLSID.

HRESULT CLSIDFromString(

LPOLESTR lpsz,	//Points to the string representation of the CLSID
LPCLSID pclsid	//Receives a pointer to the CLSID on return
);

Parameters

lpsz

Points to the string representation of the CLSID.

pclsid

Receives a pointer to the CLSID on return.

Return Values

S_OK

Indicates the CLSID was returned successfully.

E_OUTOFMEMORY

Out of memory.

E_INVALIDARG

Indicates one or more arguments are invalid.

E_UNEXPECTED

Comments

Because of the restrictions placed on OLE 1 CLSID values, CLSIDFromProgID and CLSIDFromString are the only two functions that can be used to generate a CLSID for an OLE 1 object.
