IUICommandHandler interface (uiribbon.h)

The IUICommandHandler interface is implemented by the application and defines the methods for gathering Command information and handling Command events from the Windows Ribbon framework.

Inheritance

The IUICommandHandler interface inherits from the IUnknown interface. IUICommandHandler also has these types of members:

Methods

The IUICommandHandler interface has these methods.

IUICommandHandler::Execute Responds to execute events on Commands bound to the Command handler.
IUICommandHandler::UpdateProperty Responds to property update requests from the Windows Ribbon framework.

Remarks

For each Command in a View, the Ribbon framework requires a corresponding Command handler in the host application. A new handler or an existing handler must be bound to the Command through the IUIApplication::OnCreateUICommand notification method.

Any number of Commands can be bound to a Command handler.

The Command handler serves two purposes: respond to property update requests and respond to execute events on any Command to which it is bound.
