OLEGETMONIKER

The OLEGETMONIKER enumeration constants indicate the requested behavior of the IOleObject::GetMoniker and IOleClientSite::GetMoniker methods. These constants are defined in ole2.h and in the IOleObject interface (oleobj.idl).

typedef enum tagOLEGETMONIKER
{
OLEGETMONIKER_ONLYIFTHERE = 1,
OLEGETMONIKER_FORCEASSIGN = 2,
OLEGETMONIKER_UNASSIGN = 3,
OLEGETMONIKER_TEMPFORUSER = 4
} OLEGETMONIKER;

Elements

OLEGETMONIKER_ONLYIFTHERE

Indicates that if a moniker for the object or container does not exist, GetMoniker should return E_FAIL and not assign a moniker.

OLEGETMONIKER_FORCEASSIGN

Indicates that if a moniker for the object or container does not exist, GetMoniker should create one.

OLEGETMONIKER_UNASSIGN

Indicates that IOleClientSite::GetMoniker can release the object's moniker (although it is not required to do so). This constant is not valid in IOleObject::GetMoniker.

OLEGETMONIKER_TEMPFORUSER

Indicates that if a moniker for the object does not exist, IOleObject::GetMoniker can create a temporary moniker that can be used for display purposes (IMoniker::GetDisplayName) but not for binding. This is enables the object server to return a descriptive name for the object without incurring the overhead of creating and maintaining a moniker until a link is actually created.

Comments

If the OLEGETMONIKER_FORCEASSIGN flag causes a container to create a moniker for the object, the container should notify the object by calling the IOleObject::SetMoniker method.
