implements (C++)

 

The latest version of this topic can be found at implements (C++).

Specifies dispatch interfaces that are forced to be members of the IDL coclass.

Syntax

  
      [ implements(   
   interfaces={interfaces},  
   dispinterfaces={dispinterfaces}  
)]  

Parameters

interfaces
A comma separated list of the interfaces that will be a member of the IDL coclass. A shorthand method for specifying a single interface is implements(interface_name).

dispinterfaces
A comma separated list of the dispinterface that will be a member of the IDL coclass. A shorthand method for specifying a single dispinterface is implements(dispinterfaces = dispinterface_name**)**.

Remarks

By default, only COM-interfaces that are base classes of the coclass are added in the IDL coclass. implements lets you force other interfaces to be IDL coclass members.

Requirements

Attribute Context

Applies to class, struct
Repeatable Yes
Required attributes None

Example

The following example is in three parts: an .idl file and its associated .h file, and a C++ file.

Assume the following .idl file, which will be available to the compiler.

// attr_implements.idl  
import "docobj.idl";  
[ version(1.0), uuid(0ed71801-a1b6-3178-af3b-9431fc00185e) ]  
library odod  
{  
   importlib("stdole2.tlb");  
   importlib("olepro32.dll");  
  
   [  
      object,  
      uuid(1AECC9BB-2104-3723-98B8-7CC54722C7DD)  
   ]   
   interface IBar1 {  
      [id(1)] HRESULT bar1();  
   };  
  
   [  
      dual,  
      uuid(1AECCABB-2104-3723-98B8-7CC54722C7DD)  
   ]   
   interface IBar2 {  
      [id(1)] HRESULT bar2();  
   };  
  
   [  
      uuid(1AECC9CC-2104-3723-98B8-7CC54722C7DD)  
   ]   
   dispinterface ISna {  
   properties:  
  
   methods:  
      [id(1)] HRESULT sna();  
   };  
  
   [  
      uuid(159A9BBB-E5F1-33F6-BEF5-6CFAD7A5933F),  
      version(1.0)  
   ]   
   coclass CBar {  
      interface IBar1;  
      interface IBar2;  
      dispinterface ISna;  
   };  
}  

Example

And the following .h file, which also needs to be available to the compiler.

// attr_implements.h  
// this ALWAYS GENERATED file contains definitions for the interfaces
