IDsAdminCreateObj::CreateModal

The IDsAdminCreateObj::CreateModal method displays the object creation wizard and returns the newly created object. The IDsAdminCreateObj::Initialize method must be called before IDsAdminCreateObj::CreateModal can be called.

HRESULT CreateModal( 
  HWND hwndParent,
  IADs** ppADsObj
);

Parameters

hwndParent

[in] Contains the window handle of the owner of the wizard. This value cannot be NULL. Use the result of the GetDesktopWindow function if no parent window is available.

ppADsObj

[out] Pointer to an IADs interface pointer that receives the newly created object. This parameter recevies NULL if the object creation wizard fails or is cancelled. The caller must release this interface when it is no longer required. This parameter may be NULL if this object is not required.

Return Values

Returns an OLE-defined error code or one of the following values.

S_OK

The object creation wizard was successful.

S_FALSE

The object creation wizard was cancelled by the user. If ppADsObj is not NULL, ppADsObj receives a NULL value.

E_INVALIDARG

hwndParent is invalid or IDsAdminCreateObj::Initialize has not been called.

E_OUTOFMEMORY

A memory allocation failure occurred.

Remarks

If the user cancels the object creation wizard, this method returns S_FALSE. If ppADsObj is not NULL, ppADsObj receives a NULL value. Because of this, the use of the SUCCEEDED macro to determine if ppADsObj is valid should be avoided. Always test the contents of ppADsObj for a non-NULL value before using the interface pointer.
