Use this interface to specify the boot image to add to the optical disc. A boot image contains one or more sectors of code used to start the computer.

To create an instance of this interface, call the CoCreateInstance function. Use__uuidof(BootOptions) for the class identifier and __uuidof(IBootOptions) for the interface identifier.

Inheritance

The IBootOptions interface inherits from the IDispatch interface. IBootOptions also has these types of members:
