IDirectDrawPalette Interface Method Groups

Applications use the methods of the IDirectDrawPalette interface to create DirectDrawPalette objects and work with system-level variables. The methods can be organized into the following groups:

Allocating memory Initialize

IUnknown AddRef

QueryInterface

Release

Palette capabilities GetCaps

Palette entries GetEntries

SetEntries

All COM interfaces inherit the IUnknown interface methods, which are listed in the "IUnknown" group above. These three methods allow additional interfaces to be added to the DirectDrawPalette object without affecting the functionality of the original interface.
