ITypeInfo::GetRefTypeOfImplType

This method retrieves the type description of implemented interface types for a component object class (coclass) or an inherited interface.

HRESULT GetRefTypeOfImplType(
unsigned int index, 
HREFTYPE FAR *pRefType );

Parameters

  • index
    Index of the implemented type whose handle is returned. The valid range is 0 to the cImplTypes member in the TYPEATTR structure.
  • pRefType
    On return, pointer to a handle for the implemented interface (if any). This handle can be passed to ITypeInfo::GetRefTypeInfo to get the type description.

Return Values

One of the values described in the following table is returned.

Value Description
S_OK Success.
TYPE_E_ELEMENTNOTFOUND Passed index is outside the range 0 to 1 less than the number of function descriptions.
E_INVALIDARG One or more of the parameters is invalid.
TYPE_E_IOERROR The function could not read from the file.
TYPE_E_INVDATAREAD Invalid data.
TYPE_E_UNSUPFORMAT The type library has an older format.
TYPE_E_INVALIDSTATE The type library could not be opened.

Remarks

If the TKIND_DISPATCH type description is for a dual interface, the TKIND_INTERFACE type description can be obtained by calling GetRefTypeOfImplType with an index of –1, and by passing the returned pRefType handle to GetRefTypeInfo to retrieve the type information.
