IOleUILinkContainerA interface (oledlg.h)

Implemented by containers and used by OLE common dialog boxes. It supports these dialog boxes by providing the methods needed to manage a container's links.

The IOleUILinkContainer methods enumerate the links associated with a container, and specify how they should be updated, automatically or manually. They change the source of a link and obtain information associated with a link. They also open a link's source document, update links, and break a link to the source.

Inheritance

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

Methods

The IOleUILinkContainerA interface has these methods.

 
IOleUILinkContainerA::CancelLink

IOleUILinkContainerA::GetLinkSource

Retrieves information about a link that can be displayed in the Links dialog box. (ANSI)
IOleUILinkContainerA::GetLinkUpdateOptions

IOleUILinkContainerA::GetNextLink

IOleUILinkContainerA::OpenLinkSource

IOleUILinkContainerA::SetLinkSource

Changes the source of a link. (ANSI)

Remarks

Note

The oledlg.h header defines IOleUILinkContainer as an alias which automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
