Adding RSoP Support to a Group Policy Snap-in Extension

  • Artikel

This topic describes how to add support for Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) to your Group Policy snap-in extension with the fewest number of changes to existing code.

The recommended way to support RSoP in an existing MMC snap-in is to add a property to the CComponentData and CComponent classes that are already implemented. The property must indicate whether the snap-in is running in RSoP mode or in editing mode. You should register two class IDs for the snap-in, one for RSoP mode and one for editing mode. (Mapping two class IDs to the same snap-in allows you to reuse user interface components such as dialog boxes and helper functions.) When you call the DllGetClassObject function, pass a flag that indicates the operation mode of the snap-in, as shown in the code sample following. For more information about MMC, see the Microsoft Management Console.

Note

After you add support for RSoP to your snap-in, you must communicate with the main RSoP snap-in by using the IRSOPInformation interface. You will also need to query for Group Policy WMI objects (instances).

The following code example shows how to add support for Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) to your Group Policy snap-in extension.

    //
    // Administrative Templates in editing mode
    //

    if (IsEqualCLSID (rclsid, CLSID_PolicySnapInUser)) {
    //
    // Second argument is the RSoP flag (FALSE). 
    //
        CPolicyComponentDataCF *pComponentDataCF = new CPolicyComponentDataCF(TRUE, FALSE);   // ref == 1

        if (!pComponentDataCF)
            return E_OUTOFMEMORY;

        hr = pComponentDataCF->QueryInterface(riid, ppv);

        pComponentDataCF->Release();     // release initial reference

        return hr;
    }

    //
    // Administrative Templates in RSoP mode
    //

    if (IsEqualCLSID (rclsid, CLSID_RSOPolicySnapInUser)) {
    //
    // Second argument is the RSoP flag (TRUE). 
    //
        CPolicyComponentDataCF *pComponentDataCF = new CPolicyComponentDataCF(TRUE, TRUE);   // ref == 1

        if (!pComponentDataCF)
            return E_OUTOFMEMORY;

        hr = pComponentDataCF->QueryInterface(riid, ppv);

        pComponentDataCF->Release();     // Release the initial reference

        return hr;
    }
