The Normal state is where the form object spends most of its time, waiting for client applications to initiate an action such as saving changes or closing the form. The following table describes allowed transitions from the Normal state.
IPersistMessage method |
Action |
New state |
|---|---|---|
IPersistMessage::Save( pMessage == NULL, fSameAsLoad == TRUE) -or- IPersistMessage::Save( pMessage != NULL, fSameAsLoad == FALSE) |
Recursively save any embedded OLE objects that have been modified. Save message data back to the message object. Store the fSameAsLoad flag for later use in the NoScribble state. |
NoScribble |
IPersistMessage::Save( pMessage != NULL, fSameAsLoad == TRUE) |
This is the same as the previous case, except that this Save call is used in low-memory situations and must not fail for lack of memory. |
NoScribble |
Recursively invoke the HandsOffMessage method on embedded messages or the OLE IPersistStorage::HandsOffStorage method on embedded OLE objects. Release the message object and any embedded messages or objects. |
||
IPersistMessage::SaveCompleted, IPersistMessage::InitNew or IPersistMessage::Load |
Set the last error to and return E_UNEXPECTED. |
