CoGetObject (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This function converts a display name into a moniker that identifies the object named, and then binds to the object identified by the moniker.

Syntax

WINOLEAPI CoGetObject(
  LPCWSTR pszName,
  BIND_OPTS* pBindOptions,
  REFIID riid,
  void** ppv
);

Parameters

• pszName
  [in] Display name, in string format, of the object to be created.

• pBindOptions
  [in] Binding options used to create a moniker that creates the actual object.

• riid
  [in] Reference to the ID of an interface that is implemented on the object to be created.

• ppv
  [out] Address of a pointer to the interface specified by riid on the object that is created.

Return Value

This function supports the standard return values E_FAIL, E_OUTOFMEMORY and E_UNEXPECTED, as well as the following:

• S_OK
  The object was created successfully.

• MK_E_SYNTAX
  The pszName parameter is not a properly formed display name.

• MK_E_NOOBJECT
  The object identified by this moniker, or some object identified by the composite moniker of which this moniker is a part, could not be found.

• MK_E_EXCEEDEDDEADLINE
  The binding operation could not be completed within the time limit specified by the BIND_OPTS structure passed in pBindOptions.

• MK_E_CONNECTMANUALLY
  The binding operation requires assistance from the end user. The most common reasons for returning this value are that a password is needed or that a floppy needs to be mounted.

• MK_E_INTERMEDIATEINTERFACENOTSUPPORTED
  An intermediate object was found but it did not support an interface required to complete the binding operation. For example, an item moniker returns this value if its container does not support the IOleItemContainer interface.

Remarks

CoGetObject encapsulates calls to the COM library functions CreateBindCtx, MkParseDisplayName, and IMoniker::BindToObject.
