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.

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.
TYPE_E_AMBIGUOUSNAME	More than one instance of this name occurs in the type library.

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.

Example

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

Requirements

Header	oaidl.h, oaidl.idl
Library	oleaut32.lib, uuid.lib
