Files Generated for an OLE Interface
The following
topics describe each of the files generated for a custom OLE interface, which
you identify by including the object attribute in the interface attribute list of
the IDL file. For OLE interfaces, the MIDL compiler combines all client and
object server routines into a single interface proxy file. This file includes
the surrogate entry points for both clients and servers. In addition, the MIDL
compiler generates an interface header file, a private header file, and an
interface UUID file. You will use all these files when creating a proxy DLL that
contains the code to support the use of the interface by both client
applications and object servers. You will also use the interface header file
and the interface UUID file when creating the executable file for a client
application that uses the interface.
