ITypeInfo::GetRefTypeOfImplType method (oaidl.h)

  • Article

If a type description describes a COM class, it retrieves the type description of the implemented interface types. For an interface, GetRefTypeOfImplType returns the type information for inherited interfaces, if any exist.

Syntax

HRESULT GetRefTypeOfImplType(
  [in]  UINT     index,
  [out] HREFTYPE *pRefType
);

Parameters

[in] index

The index of the implemented type whose handle is returned. The valid range is 0 to the cImplTypes field in the TYPEATTR structure.

[out] pRefType

A handle for the implemented interface (if any). This handle can be passed to ITypeInfo::GetRefTypeInfo to get the type description.

Return value

This method can return one of these values.

Return code Description
S_OK
Success.
E_INVALIDARG
One or more of the arguments is not valid.
TYPE_E_ELEMENTNOTFOUND
Passed index is outside the range 0 to 1 less than the number of implemented interfaces.

Remarks

If the TKIND_DISPATCH type description is for a dual interface, the TKIND_INTERFACE type description can be obtained by calling GetRefTypeOfImplType with an index of –1, and by passing the returned pRefTypehandle to GetRefTypeInfo to retrieve the type information.
