The IADsMembers interface is a dual interface. It is designed for managing a list of ADSI object references. It is implemented to support group membership for individual accounts. It can be used to manage a collection of ADSI objects belonging to a group. To access the collection of group members, use the IADsGroup::get_Members property method implemented by the ADSI group object.
The IADsMembers interface serves a slightly different purpose from the IADsCollection and IADsContainer interfaces, which also works with a set of data or objects. IADsCollection manages sets of arbitrary data elements that are not object references, whereas IADsContainer manages objects that are part of the directory tree structure or the network topology.
The IADsMembers interface inherits the methods of the standard COM interfaces:
In addition, IADsMembers defines the following methods.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| get_Count | Gets the number of members. |
| get__NewEnum | Retrieves an interface on an enumerator object. |
| get_Filter | Gets and sets the filter for selection. |
| put_Filter | Gets and sets the filter for selection. |
