1/6/2010

This method binds to the type descriptions contained within a type library.

Syntax

HRESULT BindType( 
  OLECHAR FAR* szName, 
  unsigned long lHashVal, 
  ITypeInfo FAR* FAR* ppTInfo, 
  ITypeComp FAR* FAR* ppTComp 
);

Parameters

  • szName
    [in] Null-terminated string that contains the name to be bound.
  • lHashVal
    [in] Hash value for the name computed by LHashValOfName.
  • ppTInfo
    [out] On return, contains a pointer to a pointer to an ITypeInfo of the type to which the name was bound.
  • ppTComp
    [out] Passes a valid pointer, such as the address of an ITypeComp* variable.

Return Value

The following table shows the return values for this function.

Value Description

S_OK

TYPE_E_INVALIDSTATE

The type library could not be opened.

TYPE_E_AMBIGUOUSNAME

Remarks

Use the function BindType for binding a type name to the ITypeInfo that describes the type. This function is invoked on the ITypeComp that is returned by ITypeLib::GetTypeComp to bind to types defined within that library. It can also be used in the future for binding to nested types.

Example

TypeComp * ptcomp;
  ptemp -> BindType(szName, lhashval, &ptinfo, &ptemp)

Requirements

Header oaidl.h, oaidl.idl
Library oleaut32.lib, uuid.lib
Windows Embedded CE Windows CE 2.0 and later
