Specifies the ProgID for a COM object.

Syntax

  
      [ progid(  
   name  
) ];

Parameters

name
The ProgID representing the object.

ProgIDs present a human-readable version of the class identifier (CLSID) used to identify COM/ActiveX objects.

Remarks

The progid C++ attribute lets you specify the ProgID for a COM object. A ProgID has the form name1.name2.version. If you do not specify a version for a ProgID, the default version is 1. If you do not specify name1.name2, the default name is classname.classname. If you do not specify progid and you do specify vi_progid, name1.name2 are taken from vi_progid and the (next sequential number) version is appended.

If an attribute block that uses progid does not also use uuid, the compiler will check the registry to see if a uuid exists for the specified progid. If progid is not specified, the version (and coclass name, if creating a coclass) will be used to generate a progid.

progid implies the coclass attribute, that is, if you specify progid, it is the same thing as specifying the coclass and progid attributes.

The progid attribute causes a class to be automatically registered under the specified name. The generated .idl file will not display the progid value.

When this attribute is used within a project that uses ATL, the behavior of the attribute changes. In addition to the above behavior, the information specified with this attribute is used in the GetProgID function, injected by the coclass attribute. For more information, see the coclass attribute.

Example

See the example for coclass for a sample use of progid.
