Parameters

  • release
    Type: System.Boolean

    true to specify that the data object called, which implements SetData, owns the storage medium after the call returns. This means that the data object must free the medium after it has been used by calling the ReleaseStgMedium function. false to specify that the caller retains ownership of the storage medium, and that the data object called uses the storage medium for the duration of the call only.

Implements

IDataObject.SetData(FORMATETC%, STGMEDIUM%, Boolean)

Remarks

This method delegates the call to the corresponding SetData from the System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes namespace, assuming that the clipboard object is wrapping an existing IDataObject.
