Member Function Documentation

◆ ADTF_IID()

ADTF_IID	(	IClassFactory	,
		"class_factory.ant.ucom.adtf.iid"
	)

Marks the IClassFactory to be castable with the ucom_cast<>

See also: ADTF_IID(_interface, _striid)

◆ CreateInstance()

virtual tResult CreateInstance	(	const char *	strCID,
		iobject_ptr< IObject > &	oObject,
		const tChar *	strNameOfObject = `""`
	)		const

pure virtual

Creates a new instance.

The CreateInstance method creates a single uninitialized object of the class associated with a specified class identifier.

Parameters

[in]	strCID	Class identifier of the object to create!
[in]	strNameOfObject	ObjectName identifier (will be relevant only if the ClassFactory can handle this).
[in,out]	oObject	Object to create to be used to communicate with the object.

Returns: Returns a standard result code.

Return values

ERR_ERR_INVALID_LICENSE	no valid license found
Return	Value of iobject_ptr<IObject>::Reset()

◆ GetClasses()

virtual tResult GetClasses ( iobject_enum< const IClassInfo > & lstOfClasses ) const

pure virtual

Enumerates all classes supported by the class factory and pushes it to lstOfClasses This method should be used for debugging or testing purposes only.

Parameters

[in,out] lstOfClasses List to return the class information to. Use object_list or object_vector.

Returns: Returns a standard result code.

See also: object_list, object_vector.
