ICreateTypeInfo::AddRefTypeInfo

HRESULT AddRefTypeInfo(
  ITypeInfo FAR*  pTInfo,  
  HREFTYPE FAR*  phRefType  
);
 

Adds a type description to those referenced by the type description being created.

Parameters

pTInfo
Pointer to the type description to be referenced.
phRefType
On return, pointer to the handle that this type description associates with the referenced type information.

Return Value

The return value of the returned HRESULT is one of the following:

Return value Meaning
S_OK Success.
STG_E_INSUFFICIENTMEMORY Out of memory.
E_OUTOFMEMORY Out of memory.
E_INVALIDARG One or more of the arguments is invalid.
E_ACCESSDENIED Cannot write to the destination.
TYPE_E_WRONGTYPEKIND Type mismatch.

Comments

The second parameter returns a pointer to the handle of the added type information. If AddRefTypeInfo has been called previously for the same type information, the index that was returned by the previous call is returned in phRefType. If the referenced type description is in the type library being created, its type information can be obtained by calling IUnknown::QueryInterface(IID_ITypeInfo, ...) on the ICreateTypeInfo interface of that type description.
