IRunningObjectTable::EnumRunning method (objidl.h)

Article
10/13/2021

Creates and returns a pointer to an enumerator that can list the monikers of all the objects currently registered in the running object table (ROT).

Syntax

HRESULT EnumRunning(
  [out] IEnumMoniker **ppenumMoniker
);

Parameters

[out] ppenumMoniker

A pointer to an IEnumMoniker pointer variable that receives the interface pointer to the new enumerator for the ROT. When successful, the implementation calls AddRef on the enumerator; it is the caller's responsibility to call Release. If an error occurs; the implementation sets *ppenumMoniker to NULL.

Return value

This method can return the standard return values E_OUTOFMEMORY and S_OK.

Remarks

IRunningObjectTable::EnumRunning must create and return a pointer to an IEnumMoniker interface on an enumerator object. The standard enumerator methods can then be called to enumerate the monikers currently registered in the registry. The enumerator cannot be used to enumerate monikers that are registered in the ROT after the enumerator has been created.

The EnumRunning method is intended primarily for the use by the system in implementing the alert object table. Note that OLE 2 does not include an implementation of the alert object table.
