Moniker Clients
Moniker clients must start by getting a moniker. There are several ways for a
moniker client to get a moniker. For example, in OLE Compound Documents, when
the end-user creates a linked item (either using Insert Object dialog, the
clipboard, or drag-and drop), a moniker is embedded as part of the linked item. In
that case, the programmer has minimal contact with monikers. Programmatically,
if you have an interface pointer to an object that implements the IMoniker interface, you can use that to get a moniker, and there are methods on other
interfaces that are defined to return monikers.
There are different kinds of monikers, which are used to identify different
kinds of objects, but to a moniker client, all monikers look the same. A moniker
client simply calls IMoniker::BindToObject on a moniker and gets an interface pointer to the object that the moniker
identifies. No matter whether the moniker identifies an object as large as an
entire spreadsheet or as small as a single cell within a spreadsheet, calling IMoniker::BindToObject will return a pointer to that object. If the object is already running, IMoniker::BindToObject will find it in memory. If the object is stored passively on disk, IMoniker::BindToObject will locate a server for that object, run the server, and have the server
bring the object into the running state. All the details of the binding process
are hidden from the moniker client. Thus, for a moniker client, using the moniker
is very simple.

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 » |
