IDataModelManager::AcquireNamedModel method (dbgmodel.h)
This looks up a well known model name and returns the data model registered by that name. Note that if there is no model registered by the supplied name, a stub will be created and returned to the caller.
Anything added to the stub will be added to the real object at the time a registration is made.
Syntax
HRESULT AcquireNamedModel(
PCWSTR modelName,
IModelObject **modelObject
);
Parameters
modelName
The name for which to look up a registered data model.
modelObject
The data model which was registered under the name given by the modelName argument will be returned here. If no such data model is registered, a stub object will be created, temporarily registered under the name given by the modelName argument and returned here. If such occurred, when the real object is registered via a call to the RegisterNamedModel method, the changes which were made to the stub object are, in effect, moved to the real data model.
Return value
This method returns HRESULT.
Remarks
A caller who wishes to extend a data model which is registered under a given name calls the AcquireNamedModel method in order to retrieve the object for the data model they wish to extend. This method will return whatever data model was registered via a prior call to the RegisterNamedModel method.
As the primary purpose of the AcquireNamedModel method is to extend the model, this method has a special behavior if no model has been registered under the given name yet. If no model has been registered under the given name yet, a stub object is created, temporarily registered under the given name, and returned to the caller. When the real data model is registered via a call to the RegisterNamedModel method, any changes which were made to the stub object are, in effect, made to the real model. This removes many load order dependency issues from components which extend each other.
Sample Code
ComPtr<IDataModelManager> spManager; /* get the data model manager */
ComPtr<IModelObject> spExtensionModel; /* create a data model object you want
to use as an extension (see
CreateDataModelObject) */
// Get the process model so we can extend it
ComPtr<IModelObject> spProcessModel;
if (SUCCEEDED(spManager->AcquireNamedModel(L"Debugger.Models.Process",
&spProcessModel)))
{
// We have the process model and can extend it. Even if the name we queried
// for is *NOT* yet registered, we can extend what gets returned (a stub)
// and the extensions on it will be moved to the real object
// once RegisterNamedModel() is called.
if (SUCCEEDED(spProcessModel->AddParentModel(spExtensionModel.Get(),
nullptr,
false)))
{
// We have successfully extended the debugger's concept of a
// process with whatever we have in spExtensionModel!
}
}
