Implement Connection Point Wizard

This wizard implements a connection point for a COM object. A connectable object (that is, a source) can expose a connection point for its own interfaces or for any outgoing interface. Visual C++ and Windows both provide type libraries that have outgoing interfaces. Each outgoing interface can be implemented by a client on an object (that is, a sink).

For more information, see ATL Connection Points.

• Available type libraries
  Displays the available type libraries containing the interface definitions for which you can implement connection points. Click the ellipsis button to locate a file containing the type library to use.

• Location
  Displays the location of the type library currently selected in the Available type libraries list.

• Interfaces
  Displays the interfaces whose definitions are contained in the type library currently selected in the Available type libraries box.

  Transfer button	Description

  >>	Adds to the Implement connection points list all interface names available in the Interfaces list.
  <	Removes the interface name currently selected in the Implement connection points list.
  <<	Removes all interface names currently listed in the Implement connection points list.

• Implement connection points
  Displays the names of the interfaces for which you implement connection points when you click Finish.
