IBindStatusCallback::OnStartBinding

Notifies the client about the callback methods it is registered for receiving. This notification is a response to the flags the client requested in RegisterBindStatusCallback.

HRESULT OnStartBinding(
  DWORD  dwReserved,  // Reserved for future use
  IBinding *pbinding  // Pointer to the IBinding interface for the 
                      // current bind operation
);

Parameters

dwReserved: Reserved for future use. Must be zero.
pbinding: [in] Pointer to the IBinding interface of the current bind operation. May not be NULL. The client should call AddRef on this pointer to keep a reference to the binding object.

Return Values

S_OK: The operation was successful.
E_INVALIDARG: The pbinding parameter is invalid.

Remarks

Asynchronous monikers typically call this method before the call to IMoniker::BindToStorage or IMoniker::BindToObject has returned.

In the call to this method, the moniker also provides the client with a pointer to the IBinding interface for the binding object associated with the current bind operation. The client can use the IBinding interface to control the progress of the bind operation.

To keep a reference to the binding object, the client must store the pointer to the IBinding interface and call AddRef on it. When the client no longer needs the reference, it must call Release on it. Note that calling Release does not cancel the bind operation, it simply frees the reference to the IBinding interface sent in the callback.

Notes to Implementers

A client can return E_UNIMPL or S_OK if it is not interested in receiving this notification.
