IPersistStreamInit::Save (Windows CE 5.0)

Article
09/14/2012

This method saves an object to the specified stream.

HRESULT Save(LPSTREAM pStm,BOOL fClearDirty);

Parameters

pStm
[in] IStream pointer to the stream into which the object should be saved.
fClearDirty
[in] Indicates whether to clear the dirty flag after the save is complete. If TRUE, the flag should be cleared. If FALSE, the flag should be left unchanged.

Return Values

S_OK
The object was successfully saved to the stream.
STG_E_CANTSAVE
The object could not save itself to the stream. This error could indicate, for example, that the object contains another object that is not serializable to a stream or that an ISequentialStream::Write call returned STG_E_CANTSAVE.
STG_E_MEDIUMFULL
The object could not be saved because there is no space left on the storage device.

Remarks

IPersistStreamInit::Save saves an object into the specified stream and indicates whether the object should reset its dirty flag.

The seek pointer is positioned at the location in the stream at which the object should begin writing its data. The object calls the ISequentialStream::Write method to write its data.

On exit, the seek pointer must be positioned immediately past the object data. The position of the seek pointer is undefined if an error returns.

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

Notes to Callers

Rather than calling IPersistStreamInit::Save directly, you typically call the OleSaveToStream helper function, which does the following:

Calls IPersistStreamInit::GetClassID to get the object's CLSID.
Calls the WriteClassStm function to write the object's CLSID to the stream.
Calls IPersistStreamInit::Save.

If you call these methods directly, you can write other data into the stream after the CLSID before calling IPersistStreamInit::Save.

The OLE-provided implementation of IPersistStreamInit follows this same pattern.

Notes to Implementers

The IPersistStreamInit::Save method does not write the CLSID to the stream. The caller is responsible for writing the CLSID.

The IPersistStream::Save method can read from, write to, and seek in the stream; but it must not seek to a location in the stream before that of the seek pointer on entry.

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE 3.0 and later.
Header: Ocidl.h, Ocidl.idl.
Link Library: Ole32.lib, Uuid.lib.
