ILocalRegistry4::RegisterInterface Method (Guid)

Visual Studio 2015

Registers an interface for marshaling by using a locally registered proxy.

Namespace: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.9.0 (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.9.0.dll)

Syntax

C++

int RegisterInterface(
	[InAttribute] Guid% riid
)

Parameters

riid: Type: System::Guid
ID of the interface to register.

Return Value

Type: System::Int32

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

Remarks

If riid is GUID_NULL, then all interfaces under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\<RegRoot>\Interface that have a ProxyStubClsid32 entry will be registered.

Note
This method can affect performance if there are many interfaces with many different proxy DLLs because all those DLLs will be loaded.

If riid is IID_IUnknown, then only those interfaces that have an auto-register value (that is, AutoRegister set to non-zero) will be registered.

This method is safe to call from any thread.

There is no corresponding "unregister" method.

COM Signature

From vsshell90.idl:

C++

HRESULT RegisterClassObject(
   [in] REFIID riid
);
