IConnectionPoint:IUnknown (Windows CE 5.0)

This interface supports connection points for connectable objects.

Connectable objects support the following features:

Outgoing interfaces, such as event sets
The ability to enumerate the IIDs of the outgoing interfaces
The ability to connect and disconnect sinks to the object for those outgoing IIDs
The ability to enumerate the connections that exist to a particular outgoing interface

When to Implement

Implement this interface as part of support for connectable objects. To create a connectable object, you need to implement objects that provide four related interfaces:

The IConnectionPointContainer interface is implemented on the connectable object to indicate the existence of the outgoing interfaces.

It provides access to an enumerator subobject with the IEnumConnectionPoints interface. It also provides access to all the connection point subobjects, each of which implements the IConnectionPoint interface.

The IConnectionPoint interface provides access to an enumerator subobject with the IEnumConnections interface.

Each connection point is a separate subobject to avoid circular reference counting problems.

A connection point controls how many connections (one or more) it will allow in its implementation of IConnectionPoint::Advise. A connection point that allows only one interface can return E_NOTIMPL from the IConnectionPoint::EnumConnections method.

When to Use

A client can use the IConnectionPointContainer interface in these ways:

To obtain access to an enumerator subobject with the IEnumConnectionPoints interface. The IEnumConnectionPoints interface can then be used to enumerate connection points for each outgoing IID.
To obtain access to connection point subobjects with the IConnectionPoint interface for each outgoing IID.

Through the IConnectionPoint interface, a client starts or terminates an advisory loop with the connectable object and the client's own sink. The client can also use the IConnectionPoint interface to obtain an enumerator object with the IEnumConnections interface to enumerate the connections that it knows about.

Methods in Vtable Order

IUnknown method	Description
QueryInterface	Returns pointers to supported interfaces.
AddRef	Increments the reference count.
Release	Decrements the reference count.

Method	Description
GetConnectionInterface	Returns the IID of the outgoing interface managed by this connection point.
GetConnectionPointContainer	Returns the parent (connectable) object's IConnectionPointContainer interface pointer.
Advise	Creates a connection between a connection point and a client's sink, where the sink implements the outgoing interface supported by this connection point.
Unadvise	Terminates a notification previously set up with Advise.
EnumConnections	Returns an object to enumerate the current advisory connections for this connection point.
