This method checks whether moniker is one of the system-supplied types.

Syntax 

HRESULT IsSystemMoniker( 
  DWORD* 
pdwMksys
);

Parameters

pdwMksys

[out] Pointer to an integer that is one of the values from the MKSYSenumeration, and refers to one of the COM moniker classes.

This parameter cannot be NULL.

Return Value

The following table shows the return values for this method.

Value Description

S_OK

The moniker is a system moniker.

S_FALSE

The moniker is not a system moniker.

Remarks

To determine whether the platform supports this interface, see Determining Supported COM APIs.

Notes to Callers

New values of the MKSYSenumeration may be defined in the future; therefore you should explicitly test for each value you are interested in.

Notes to Implementers

Your implementation of this method must return MKSYS_NONE.

You cannot use this function to identify your own monikers (for example, in your implementation of IMoniker::ComposeWith). Instead, you should use your moniker's implementation of the IPersist::GetClassIDmethod or use the IUnknown::QueryInterfacemethod to test for your own private interface.

Requirements

Header objidl.h, objidl.idl
Library ole32.lib, uuid.lib
Windows Embedded CE Windows CE 2.0 and later
Windows Mobile Windows Mobile Version 5.0 and later
