IOleInPlaceActiveObjectVB interface

A Visual Basic-style version of IOleInPlaceActiveObject.TranslateAccelerator, which a class can implement.

IOleInPlaceActiveObjectVB is not a Windows interface. It has the interface identifier 38584260-0CFB-45E7-8FBB-5D20B311F5B8 and extends stdole.IDispatch. It is not declared [OleAutomation(False)], as the package’s Windows interfaces are.

It exists because IOleInPlaceActiveObject has [PreserveSig] members, which a twinBASIC class cannot implement. This interface has one Sub that corresponds to the TranslateAccelerator method of that interface, with signature types that Visual Basic code uses.

Methods

TranslateAccelerator 

Sub TranslateAccelerator(Handled As Boolean, RetVal As Long, ByVal hWnd As LongPtr, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As LongPtr, ByVal lParam As LongPtr, ByVal Shift As Long)

Lets the object process an accelerator keystroke. The Windows method receives a pointer to a MSG structure; this one receives the fields of the message as separate parameters: the window handle hWnd, the message number wMsg, and wParam and lParam. Shift is passed in addition to them.

Handled and RetVal are passed by reference, and the implementation sets them. Handled is a flag that an implementation which dealt with the keystroke sets to True. RetVal corresponds to the HRESULT that the Windows method returns: S_OK (0) when the object used the keystroke and S_FALSE (1) when it did not.
