This function saves an object opened in transacted mode into the specified storage object.

WINOLEAPI OleSave(
IPersistStorage
*
pPS, 
IStorage
*
pStg, 
BOOL
fSameAsLoad
);

Parameters

pPS
[in] Pointer to the IPersistStorageinterface on the object to be saved.
pStg
[in] Pointer to the IStorageinterface on the destination storage object to which the object indicated in pPSis to be saved.
fSameAsLoad
[in] Boolean that is set to TRUE if pStgis the same storage object from which the object was loaded or created, or to FALSE if pstgwas loaded or created from a different storage object.

Return Values

S_OK
The object was successfully saved.
STG_E_MEDIUMFULL
The object could not be saved due to lack of disk space.

This function can also return any of the error values returned by the IPersistStorage::Savemethod.

Remarks

Passing into this function any invalid and, under some circumstances, NULL pointers will result in unexpected termination of the application.

The OleSavehelper function handles the common situation in which an object is open in transacted mode and is then to be saved into the specified storage object which uses the OLE-provided compound file implementation. Transacted mode means that changes to the object are buffered until either of the IStoragemethods Commitor Revertis called. Callers can handle other situations by calling the IPersistStorageand IStorageinterfaces directly.

OleSavedoes the following:

  1. Calls the IPersistStorage::GetClassIDmethod to get the CLSID of the object.
  2. Writes the CLSID to the storage object using the WriteClassStgfunction.
  3. Calls the IPersistStorage::Savemethod to save the object.
  4. If there were no errors on the save; calls the IStorage::Commitmethod to commit the changes.
    Note   Static objects are saved into a stream called CONTENTS. Static metafile objects get saved in "placeable metafile format" and static DIB data gets saved in "DIB file format." These formats are defined to be the OLE standards for metafile and DIB. All data transferred using an IStreaminterface or a file transferred using IDataObject::GetDataHeremust be in these formats. Also, all objects whose default file format is a metafile or DIB must write their data into a CONTENTS stream using these standard formats.
