Additional Inherited Members

- Public Member Functions inherited from IComponentType
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC getId (IString **id)=0
 Gets the unique component type id. More...
 
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC getName (IString **name)=0
 Gets the user-friendly name of a component type. More...
 
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC getDescription (IString **description)=0
 Gets the description of a component type. More...
 
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC createDefaultConfig (IPropertyObject **defaultConfig)=0
 The function clones and returns default configuration. On each call, we need to create new object, because we want that each instance of the component has its own configuration object. More...
 
- Public Member Functions inherited from IBaseObject
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC borrowInterface (const IntfID &intfID, void **obj) const =0
 Returns another interface which is supported by the object without incrementing the reference count. More...
 
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC dispose ()=0
 Disposes all references held by the object. More...
 
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC getHashCode (SizeT *hashCode)=0
 Returns hash code of the object. More...
 
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC equals (IBaseObject *other, Bool *equal) const =0
 Compares object to another object for equality. More...
 
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC toString (CharPtr *str)=0
 Returns a string representation of the object. More...
 
- Public Member Functions inherited from IUnknown
virtual ErrCode INTERFACE_FUNC queryInterface (const IntfID &intfID, void **obj)=0
 Returns another interface which is supported by the object and increments the reference count. More...
 
virtual int INTERFACE_FUNC addRef ()=0
 Increments the reference count for an interface on an object. More...
 
virtual int INTERFACE_FUNC releaseRef ()=0
 Decrements the reference count for an interface on an object. More...
