IPersistStream
The IPersistStream interface provides methods for saving and loading objects that use a simple
serial stream for their storage needs. The primary purpose of this interface is
to support OLE moniker implementations. Each of the OLE-provided moniker
interfaces provide an IPersistStream implementation through which the moniker saves or loads itself. An instance
of the OLE generic composite moniker class calls the IPersistStream methods of its component monikers to load or save the components in the
proper sequence in a single stream.
OLE containers with embedded and linked component objects do not use this
interface; they use the IPersistStorage interface instead.
When to Implement
Typically, applications do not implement the IPersistStream interface. However, the IMoniker interface is derived from the IPersistStream interface, so you must implement the IPersistStream interface if you are implementing a new moniker class.
When to Use
Typically, applications do not use the IPersistStream interface directly. The default link handler uses the IPersistStream interface to save and load the monikers that identify the link source. These
monikers are stored in a stream in the storage for the linked object. If you
are writing a custom link handler for your class of components, you will need to
use the IPersistStream interface to load and save these monikers.
Methods in Vtable Order
IPersistStream Methods
| Description
| IsDirty
| Checks the object for changes since it was last saved.
| Load
| Initializes an object from the stream where it was previously saved.
| Save
| Saves an object into the specified stream and indicates whether the object
should reset its dirty flag.
| GetSizeMax
| Return the size in bytes of the stream needed to save the object.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
