IOleContainer::EnumObjects method (oleidl.h)

Enumerates the objects in the current container.

Syntax

HRESULT EnumObjects(
  [in]  DWORD        grfFlags,
  [out] IEnumUnknown **ppenum
);

Parameters

[in] grfFlags

Specifies which objects in a container are to be enumerated, as defined in the enumeration OLECONTF.

[out] ppenum

A pointer to an IEnumUnknown pointer variable that receives the interface pointer to the enumerator object. Each time a container receives a successful call to EnumObjects, it must increase the reference count on the ppenum pointer the method returns. It is the caller's responsibility to call IUnknown::Release when it is done with the pointer. If an error is returned, the implementation must set ppenum to NULL.

Return value

This method returns S_OK on success. Other possible return values include the following.

Return code Description
E_FAIL
The operation failed.
E_NOTIMPL
Object enumeration not supported.

Remarks

A container should implement EnumObjects to enable programmatic clients to find out what objects it holds. This method, however, is not called in standard linking scenarios.
