Application.OleRequired Method

Definition

Initializes OLE on the current thread.

public:
 static System::Threading::ApartmentState OleRequired();
public static System.Threading.ApartmentState OleRequired ();
static member OleRequired : unit -> System.Threading.ApartmentState
Public Shared Function OleRequired () As ApartmentState

Returns

One of the ApartmentState values.

Remarks

Call this method before calling any Microsoft.Win32 method that requires OLE. OleRequired first checks to see if OLE has been initialized on the current thread. If not, it initializes the thread for OLE.

Note

Unless a thread calls OLE methods directly, you do not need to call this method.
