Windows OLE declarations for thread-local COM initialization and uninitialization.

Imported functions

Stack effects list a C function's parameters with the first parameter on top; see importFunction.

CoInitialize

(pvReserved -- result) Initializes COM on the current thread in single-threaded-apartment mode.

Inputs

  • pvReserved: Natx reserved address; pass 0nx.

Outputs

  • result: Int32 0 when COM is newly initialized on the thread, 1 when it was already initialized in the same mode, or a negative error code on failure.

CoUninitialize

(--) Uninitializes the COM library for the current thread.

Inputs

  • None.

Outputs

  • None.

Remarks

  • Each successful CoInitialize call, including one returning 1, requires one CoUninitialize call on the same thread.

Signature examples

Printing imported names during compilation shows the exact imported signatures.

"control"       use
"windows/ole32" use

{} Int32 {} [
  @CoInitialize printStack _:;
  @CoUninitialize printStack _:;
  0
] "main" exportFunction

Expected Output During Compilation

{pvReserved: Natx;} Int32 {convention: "";} codeRef
{} () {convention: "";} codeRef
