VariantInit function (oleauto.h)

  • Article

Initializes a variant.

Syntax

void VariantInit(
  [out] VARIANTARG *pvarg
);

Parameters

[out] pvarg

The variant to initialize.

Return value

None

Remarks

The VariantInit function initializes the VARIANTARG by setting the vt field to VT_EMPTY. Unlike VariantClear, this function does not interpret the current contents of the VARIANTARG. Use VariantInit to initialize new local variables of type VARIANTARG (or VARIANT).

Examples

The following example shows how to initialize an array of variants, where celt is the number of elements in the array.

for(int i = 0; i < celt; ++i)
   VariantInit(&rgvar[i]);
