Inherits com_interface< typelist< IUnknown > >, and com_interface< IList >.

Inheritance diagram for com_type:

List of all members.

Detailed Description

template<typename IList>
class macstl::com_type< IList >

COM server.

Implements all the IUnknown functionality of a COM server: referencing counting and interface vending. This uses a static map of interface pointer offsets for fast vending and reduced instance space, while preserving thread safety.

To write a COM server vending interfaces I1, I2..., just inherit from com_type <typelist <I1, I2...> > and implement the abstract members of I1, I2... We do the rest!

Parameters:

IList

A macstl::typelist of COM interfaces to implement.

Note:

Do not include IUnknown in the typelist.

Header:

#include <macstl/com.h>
