URL Moniker Functions

URL moniker functions insulate developers from the complexities of creating, managing, and using URL monikers. These functions are as follows:

• CreateURLMoniker
• IsValidURL
• RegisterMediaTypes
• CreateFormatEnumerator
• RegisterFormatEnumerator
• RevokeFormatEnumerator
• RegisterMediaTypeClass
• FindMediaTypeClass
• GetClassFileOrMime
• UrlMkSetSessionOption

Your familiarity with these functions can be as follows:

• Be familiar with CreateURLMoniker and IsValidURL if you will be using URL monikers in stand-alone applications. If you are authoring an ActiveX control, you should use IBindHost::CreateMoniker instead of CreateURLMoniker.
• Be familiar with RegisterMediaTypes, CreateFormatEnumerator, RegisterFormatEnumerator, and RevokeFormatEnumerator if you will be performing any MIME negotiation with URL monikers.
• Be familiar with RegisterMediaTypeClass, FindMediaTypeClass, GetClassFileOrMime, and UrlMkSetSessionOption only if you have significant experience both with URL monikers and with COM.
