The abstract interface to SOM object managers.

This interface is used to access SOM objects which can be referenced, in a platform-dependent way, by identification strings, known to applications. Applications can use properties and methods of these objects to access other objects, which may have no identification strings of their own.

Since:

1.00.00

CObjectManager

CObjectManager();

Constructs the object manager.

~CObjectManager

virtual ~CObjectManager();

Destroys the object manager.

Connect

virtual XObject Connect(const CString &strSource) = 0;

Returns the object referenced by the specified identification string.

The exact behavior of this function is platform-dependent. In particular, it is not guaranteed, that the unique object referenced by the given identification string permanently exists. Instead, the platform may create a new object instance each time Connect is called. Therefore, there is no guarantee that sequential calls to Connect with the same identification string as a parameter will return the same result.

Parameters:

strSource - the identification string

Returns:

the object referenced by the specified identification string
