CreatePointerMoniker

Creates a pointer moniker based on a specified interface pointer.

WINOLEAPI CreatePointerMoniker(

LPUNKNOWN punk,	//Interface pointer to be used
LPMONIKER FAR *ppmk	//Receives the pointer moniker
);

Parameters

punk

Points to an interface pointer to the object to be identified by the resulting moniker.

ppmk

Receives an IMoniker interface pointer to the new pointer moniker. The returned pointer is NULL if an error occurs; if non-NULL, the function has called IUnknown::AddRef on the parameter and the caller is responsible for calling IUnknown::Release.

Return Values

S_OK

Indicates the pointer moniker was created successfully.

E_UNEXPECTED

Indicates an unexpected error occurred.

E_OUTOFMEMORY

Indicates insufficient memory.

Comments

You rarely need to call this function.

A pointer moniker is essentially a wrapping of an interface pointer that allows it to be passed to those interfaces that require monikers. Pointer monikers allow an object that has no persistent representation to participate in a moniker binding operation. Binding a pointer moniker is done by calling the pointer's IUnknown::QueryInterface method.
