OLE Automation Classes

These classes support automation clients (applications that control other applications). Automation servers (applications that can be controlled by other applications) are supported through dispatch maps.

COleDispatchDriver

Used to call automation servers from your automation client. ClassWizard uses this class to create type-safe classes for automation servers that provide a type library.

COleDispatchException

An exception resulting from an error during OLE automation. Automation exceptions are thrown by automation servers and caught by automation clients.
