IOleLink::GetSourceDisplayName (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This method retrieves the display name of the link source of the linked object.

Syntax

HRESULT GetSourceDisplayName(
  LPOLESTR* ppszDisplayName  
);

Parameters

  • ppszDisplayName
    [out] Address of LPOLESTR pointer variable that receives a pointer to the zero-terminated wide character string (2 bytes per character) containing the display name of the link source.

    If an error occurs, *ppszDisplayName is set to NULL; otherwise, the implementation must use the IMalloc::Alloc method to allocate the string returned in *ppszDisplayName, and the caller is responsible for calling the IMalloc::Free method to free it.

    Both the caller and called use the allocator returned by the CoGetMalloc function.

Return Value

This method supports the standard return value E_FAIL. The following table shows the additional return values for this method.

Value Description

S_OK

The display name was successfully retrieved.

CreateBindCtx and IMoniker::GetDisplayName errors

Retrieving the display name requires calling these functions; therefore, this method can return errors generated by these functions.

Remarks

The linked object's implementation of IOleLink::GetSourceDisplayName calls the IOleLink::GetSourceMoniker method to get the link source moniker, and then calls IMoniker::GetDisplayName to get that moniker's display name.

This operation is potentially expensive because it might require binding the moniker.

All of the system-supplied monikers can return a display name without binding, but there is no guarantee that other moniker implementations can.

Instead of making repeated calls to IOleLink::GetSourceDisplayName, your container application can cache the name and update it whenever the link source is bound.

To determine whether the platform supports this interface, see Determining Supported COM APIs.

Ee489198.collapse(en-US,WinEmbedded.60).gifNotes to Callers

Your container application can call IOleLink::GetSourceDisplayName to display the current source of a link.

The current source of a link is displayed in the Links dialog box.

Your implementation of that method can call IOleLink::GetSourceDisplayName.

Requirements
