OleConvertIStorageToOLESTREAMEx function
The OleConvertIStorageToOLESTREAMEx function converts the specified storage object from OLE 2 structured storage to the OLE 1 storage object model, including the presentation data. This is one of several functions included in Structured Storage to ensure compatibility between OLE1 and OLE2.
Syntax
WINOLEAPI OleConvertIStorageToOLESTREAMEx( _In_ IStorage *pStg, _In_ CLIPFORMAT cfFormat, _In_ LONG lWidth, _In_ LONG lHeight, _In_ DWORD dwSize, _In_ STGMEDIUM pmedium, _Out_ LPOLESTREAM lpolestm );
Parameters
- pStg [in]
-
Pointer to the IStorage interface on the storage object to be converted to an OLE 1 storage.
- cfFormat [in]
-
Format of the presentation data. May be NULL, in which case the lWidth, lHeight, dwSize, and pmedium parameters are ignored.
- lWidth [in]
-
Width of the object presentation data in HIMETRIC units.
- lHeight [in]
-
Height of the object presentation data in HIMETRIC units.
- dwSize [in]
-
Size of the data, in bytes, to be converted.
- pmedium [in]
-
Pointer to the STGMEDIUM structure for the serialized data to be converted.
- lpolestm [out]
-
Pointer to a stream where the persistent representation of the object is saved using the OLE 1 storage model.
Return value
This function supports the standard return value E_INVALIDARG, in addition to the following:
- S_OK
-
The conversion was completed successfully.
- DV_E_STGMEDIUM
-
The hGlobal member of STGMEDIUM is NULL.
- DV_E_TYMED
-
The tymed member of the STGMEDIUM structure is not TYMED_HGLOBAL or TYMED_ISTREAM.
Remarks
The OleConvertIStorageToOLESTREAMEx function converts an OLE 2 storage object to OLE 1 format. It differs from the OleConvertIStorageToOLESTREAM function in that the OleConvertIStorageToOLESTREAMEx function also passes the presentation data to the OLE 1 storage object, whereas the OleConvertIStorageToOLESTREAM function does not.
Because OleConvertIStorageToOLESTREAMEx can specify which presentation data to convert, it can be used by applications that do not use OLE default caching resources but do use OLE's conversion resources.
The value of the tymed member of STGMEDIUM must be either TYMED_HGLOBAL or TYMED_ISTREAM; refer to the TYMED enumeration for more information. The medium is not released by the OleConvertIStorageToOLESTREAMEx function.
