IOleItemContainer::IsRunning

Indicates whether the object identified by the specified name is running.

HRESULT IsRunning(

LPOLESTR pszItem	//Name of object whose status is being requested
);

Parameter
pszItem

[in] Points to a zero-terminated string containing the container's name for the object. For Win32 applications, the LPOLESTR type indicates a wide character string (two bytes per character); otherwise, the string has one byte per character.

Return Values
S_OK

The specified object is running.

S_FALSE

The object is not running.

MK_E_NOOBJECT

The parameter pszItem does not identify a object in this container.

Comments
The item moniker implementation of IMoniker::IsRunning calls this method.

Notes to Implementors
Your implementation of IOleItemContainer::IsRunning should first determine whether pszItem identifies one of the container's objects. If it does not, your implementation should return MK_E_NOOBJECT. If the object is not loaded, your implementation should return S_FALSE. If it is loaded, your implementation can call the OleIsRunning API function to determine whether it is running.

If pszItem names a pseudo-object, your implementation can simply return S_OK because a pseudo-object is running whenever its container is running.
