IAppHostPropertyCollection::Item Property

 

Gets the property with the requested index or property name in the collection.

Syntax

HRESULT get_Item(  
   [in] VARIANT cIndex,  
   [out,  
   retval] IAppHostProperty** ppProperty  
);  

Parameters

cIndex
A VARIANT that contains the index or property name of the item to retrieve from the collection.

ppProperty
A pointer to a pointer for an IAppHostProperty interface.

Return Value

An HRESULT. Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.

Value Description
S_OK Indicates that the operation was successful.
ERROR_INVALID_INDEX Indicates that the requested property was not found.

Example

The following code example demonstrates how to use the IAppHostPropertyCollection interface to access the enabled property of the defaultDocument configuration section.
