Remarks

COM Signature

From vsshell80.idl:

HRESULT IVsAggregatableProjectFactory::PreCreateForOuter(  
   [in] IUnknown *punkOuter,  
   [out] IUnknown **ppunkProject  
);  

PreCreateForOuter is called by the owner or outer project subtype so that the owned or inner project subtype can create an aggregatable version of itself. The outer IUnknown (punkOuter) is the controlling IUnknown. The owned project subtype should only create its project object instance here. All the initialization work should occur in InitializeForOuter method to ensure that the owner or outer project subtype works correctly during the owned or inner project subtype initialization.

The owned project must return its inner IUnknown.
