Parameters
| Input | ||
| Name | Type | Description |
| thisInterfacePtr | IDispatch * | The IDispatch interface pointer of your ActiveX object. |
| typeInfoIndex | unsigned long | The type information to return. Pass 0 to retrieve type information for the IDispatch implementation. |
| locale | LCID | The locale identifier for the type information. |

Return Value
| Name | Type | Description | ||
| status | HRESULT | A value indicating whether an error occurred. Function failure is indicated by a negative error code. Error codes are defined in CVIversion\include\cviauto.h and <Program Files>\National Instruments\Shared\MSDTRedistributables\SDKHeaderFiles\8.1\winerror.h. The LabWindows/CVI ActiveX Library explicitly returns error codes. Other error codes in winerror.h are generated by the COM runtime and passed on to you by the ActiveX Library. You can use CA_GetAutomationErrorString to get the description of an error code or CA_DisplayErrorInfo to display the description of the error code.
The error codes defined in <Program Files>\National Instruments\Shared\MSDTRedistributables\SDKHeaderFiles\8.1\winerror.h are too numerous to display here. These error codes can be returned to your ActiveX clients. |
