The number of elements in the array pointed to by prgn.

[out] pvar

Type: VARIANT*

When this function returns, contains the initialized VARIANT structure.

Examples

The following example, to be included as part of a larger program, demonstrates how to use InitVariantFromInt16Array.

SHORT rgShorts[] = {3, 1};
VARIANT var;

HRESULT hr = InitVariantFromInt16Array(rgShorts, ARRAYSIZE(rgShorts), &var);

if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
    // var now is valid and has type VT_ARRAY | VT_I2.
    VariantClear(&propvar);
}
