OleCreateEmbeddingHelper
Creates an OLE embedding helper object using application-supplied code
aggregated with pieces of the OLE default object handler. This helper object can be
created and used in a specific context and role, as determined by the caller.
HRESULT OleCreateEmbeddingHelper(
REFCLSID clsid,
| //The ID of the class to be helped
| LPUNKNOWN pUnkOuter,
| //Points to controlling IUnknown
| DWORD flags,
| //Specifies the purpose for the helper
| LPCLASSFACTORY pCF,
| //Points to IClassFactory instance
| REFIID riid,
| //The ID of the interface sought by caller
| LPVOID * lplpvObj
| //Points to return point for helper
| );
|
|
Parameters
clsid
Specifies the CLSID of the class to be helped.
pUnkOuter
Points to the controlling IUnknown interface if the handler is to be aggregated; NULL if it is not to be
aggregated.
flags
Specifies the role and creation context for the embedding helper; see the
following comments for legal values.
pCF
Points to the application's IClassFactory instance; can be NULL.
riid
Specifies the interface ID desired by the caller.
lplpvObj
Points to where to return the newly created embedding helper.
Return Values
S_OK
Indicates that the OLE embedding helper was created successfully.
E_NOINTERFACE
Indicates that the interface is not supported by the object.
E_OUTOFMEMORY
Out of memory.
E_INVALIDARG
Indicates that one or more arguments are invalid.
E_UNEXPECTED
Indicates that an unexpected error occurred.
Comments
The OleCreateEmbeddingHelper function is used to create a new instance of the OLE default handler, which
can be used to support objects in various roles. The caller passes a pointer to
its IClassFactory implementation to OleCreateEmbeddingHelper. This object and the default handler are then aggregated to create the new
embedding helper object.
The OleCreateEmbeddingHelper function is usually used to support one of the following implementations:
- An object application that is being used as both a container and a server, and
which supports inserting objects into itself. In this case, the application
registers its CLSID for different contexts by calling the CoRegisterClassObject function and specifying CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER | CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER as the dwClsctx parameter, and REGCLS_MULTI_SEPARATE as the flags parameter. The local class is used to create the object and the in-process
class creates the embedding helper, passing in the pointer to the first object's
class factory in pCF.
- An in-process object handler, in which case, the DLL creates the embedding
helper by passing in a pointer to a private implementation of IClassFactory in pCF.
The flags parameter indicates how the embedding helper is to be used and how and when
the embedding helper is initialized. The values for flags are obtained by OR-ing together values from the following table:
Values for flags Parameter
| Purpose
| EMBDHLP_INPROC_HANDLER
| Creates an embedding helper that can be used with DLL object applications;
specifically, the helper exposes the caching features of the default object
handler.
| EMBDHLP_INPROC_SERVER
| Creates an embedding helper that can be used with in-process servers.
| EMBDHLP_CREATENOW
| EMBDHLP_CREATENOW creates the application-supplied piece of the object
immediately.
| EMBDHLP_DELAYCREATE
| EMBDHLP_DELAYCREATE delays creating the application-supplied piece of the
object until the object is put into its running state.
|
Calling
OleCreateEmbeddingHelper
(clsid, pUnkOuter, EMBDHLP_INPROC_HANDLER | EMBDHLP_CREATENOW,
NULL, riid, ppvObj)
is the same as calling
OleCreateDefaultHandler(clsid, pUnkOuter, riid, ppvObj)

.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 » |
