IGPMConstants Interface (Windows)

IGPMConstants Interface

The IGPMConstants interface supports methods that retrieve the value of multiple Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) constants. To create a GPMConstants object, call the IGPM::GetConstants method.

The GPMConstants object that implements the IGPMConstants interface does not introduce new constants. All the constant values and enumeration types that are returned by the GPMConstants object can be found in either the GPMC header file (Gpmgmt.idl or Gpmgmt.h) or in the GPMC type library that is embedded in the Gpmgmt.dll dynamic-link library. Use the GPMConstants object only if you do not have access to the header or to the type library.

Methods

The IGPMConstants interface inherits the methods of the IUnknown interface.
