CreateInstance

This method of the IClassFactory Interface creates an uninitialized object of a specified CLSID.

Syntax

public IUnknown CreateInstance(IUnknown pUnkOuter, _Guid riid);

Return Values

This method supports the standard return values E_UNEXPECTED, E_OUTOFMEMORY, and E_INVALIDARG, as well as the following:

S_OK -- The specified object was created.

CLASS_E_NOAGGREGATION -- The pUnkOuter parameter was non-NULL and the object does not support aggregation.

Parameters

[in] pUnkOuter If the object is being created as part of an aggregate, this is a pointer to the controlling IUnknown interface of the aggregate. Otherwise, pUnkOuter must be NULL.
[in] riid Reference to the identifier of the interface to be used to communicate with the newly created object. If pUnkOuter is NULL, riid is frequently the IID of the initializing interface; if pUnkOuter is non-NULL, riid must be IID_IUnknown (defined in the header as the IID for IUnknown).
