I am currently poking around C# and COM interfaces. COM Documentation in C# is sparse because C# came after COM (perhaps we at SO can fix). I discovered the C# compiler can give informative error messages . One can read the C# syntax version of the method signatures from the error messages and then add to your class. This worked for IAdviseSink but does not work for IBindCtx.
I am getting error for the last method RevokeObjectParam(string a)
the syntax in C++ is HRESULT RevokeObjectParam( [in] LPOLESTR pszKey );
and LPOLESTR
is a null terminated 2 byte based string so using [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)]
should work. But it doesn't, I get error messages
* Class1.cs(25,14,25,40): error CS0539: 'IBindCtx.RevokeObjectParam' in explicit interface declaration is not a member of interface
* Class1.cs(6,18,6,24): error CS0535: 'ComInterfacesInCSharp.Class1' does not implement interface member 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IBindCtx.RevokeObjectParam(string)'
So how do I amend this method signature to fix please? Full code copyable into Visual Studio is below (create a Class Library project).
using System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
namespace ComInterfacesInCSharp
{
public class Class1 : System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IBindCtx
{
void IBindCtx.RegisterObjectBound(object obj) { }
void IBindCtx.RevokeObjectBound(object obj) { }
void IBindCtx.ReleaseBoundObjects() { }
void IBindCtx.SetBindOptions(ref System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.BIND_OPTS opts) { }
void IBindCtx.GetBindOptions(ref System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.BIND_OPTS opts) { }
void IBindCtx.GetRunningObjectTable(out System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IRunningObjectTable tab) { }
void IBindCtx.RegisterObjectParam(string s, object obj) { }
void IBindCtx.GetObjectParam(string s, out object obj) { }
void IBindCtx.EnumObjectParam(out System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IEnumString enumString) { }
/* Problem here https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms693771(v=vs.85).aspx
* C++ Syntax is
* HRESULT RevokeObjectParam( [in] LPOLESTR pszKey );
* LPOLESTR is a null terminated 2 byte based string so UnmanagedType.LPWStr ought to work

//void IBindCtx.RevokeObjectParam(string a) { }
void IBindCtx.RevokeObjectParam([MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string a) { }

Incidentally, if you have a web resource detailing these interfaces in C# then that would be marvellous!
the link you have given is superb! It answers my question which was what was correct method signature. Now I have definitively from Microsoft.
While you can find many of the source code definitions from Microsoft's Reference Source site , it is not your only option for discovering the signature for a method defined in an assembly.
Learn to use Visual Studio's Object Browser . View Menu->Object Explorer (or press the F2 key).
In your particular case of implementing an interface, you can have Visual Studio auto implement the interface for you. Right-Click on the interface name ad select "Implement Interface".
