Parameters

  • dwFlags
    Type: System.UInt32

    [in] Flag that specifies which type of count to return. If set to GETOBJS_ALL, CountObjects returns the total number of objects. If set to GETOBJS_SELECTED, CountObjects returns the number of selected objects.

  • pc
    Type: System.UInt32%

    [out] Pointer to the requested object count.

Return Value

Type: System.Int32
If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

Remarks

COM Signature

From designer.idl:

HRESULT ISelectionContainer::CountObjects(
   [in] DWORD dwFlags,
   [out] ULONG * pc
);

Many windows support only single item selection; they do not allow multiple items to be selected at any one time. Single selection windows always return one for their object count regardless of how dwFlags is set.
