Methods

The IObjectSafety interface has these methods.

Method Description
GetInterfaceSafetyOptions

Gets the safety options supported by an object and the safety options that are currently set for that object.
SetInterfaceSafetyOptions

Returns whether an object is safe for initialization or scripting, as specified.

 

Remarks

The IObjectSafety interface should be implemented by objects that have interfaces which support "untrusted" clients, such as scripts. It allows the owner of the object to specify which interfaces must be protected from "untrusted" use.

Examples of interfaces that might be protected in this way are: IID_IDispatch (safe for automating with untrusted automation client or script), IID_IPersist (safe for initializing with untrusted data), and IID_IActiveScript (safe for running untrusted scripts).
