IWbemUnboundObjectSink::QueryInterface

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

The IWbemUnboundObjectSink::QueryInterface method determines if the object supports a particular COM interface. If it does, the system increases the object's reference count, and the application can use that interface immediately.

HRESULT IWbemUnboundObjectSink::QueryInterface(
  [in] REFIID riid,
  [out] LPVOID *ppv
);
 

Parameters

riid

The COM interface identifier of the requested interface.

obp

Address of a pointer that will be filled with the interface pointer if the query succeeds.

Return Values

Returns standard COM error codes for QueryInterface. It returns S_OK if the call succeeds. If the call fails because the requested interface was not supported, the method returns E_NOINTERFACE.

Remarks

When the application no longer needs the interface retrieved by a call to this method, it must call the Release method for that interface to free it. The QueryInterface method allows the extension of objects without interfering with each object's existing or future functionality.

This method is part of the IUnknown interface inherited by the object. For more information about this method, see the COM documentation in the Microsoft Platform SDK.
