CIRCCOLL Attributes Sample: Demonstrates a Collection/Enumeration
The CIRCCOLL attributes sample shows how to implement a collection/enumeration of objects using ATL.
The CIRCCOLL sample is the nonattributed version of this sample.

Building and Running the Sample
To build and run this sample
Open the solution file circoll.sln.
From the Build menu, click Build Solution.
In Solution Explorer, right-click the CircCollClient project and select Set as StartUp Project.
From the Debug menu, click Start.
The Visual Basic form, Form1, will open. Click the button to activate the application.
How the Sample Works
Three object classes are implemented: the collection creator, the collection, and the object inside the collection. Only the collection creator has a coclass associated with it (see Circcoll.idl for the coclass declaration). The collection creator has a method to return a collection of circle objects. The collection object implements the Item, Count, and _NewItem methods, so that the object can be manipulated from Visual Basic using both the For...Next and For Each... syntax.
Attributes
This sample uses the following attributes:
aggregatable, coclass, dual, emitidl, helpstring, id, in, module, noncreatable, object, out, pointer_default, progid, propget, propput, restricted, retval, support_error_info, threading, uuid, version
Keywords
This sample uses the following keywords:
AddRef; ATLASSERT; ATLTRACE; BEGIN_COM_MAP; BEGIN_OBJECT_MAP; CComCoClass; CComObject::CreateInstance; CComObjectRoot; CComVariant; COM_INTERFACE_ENTRY; DECLARE_NOT_AGGREGATABLE; DECLARE_REGISTRY; END_COM_MAP; END_OBJECT_MAP; glBegin; glEnd; glNormal3d; glPolygonMode; glVertex2d; glVertex3d; IConnectionPointContainerImpl::FindConnectionPoint; IConnectionPointImpl::Advise; IDispatchImpl; ISupportErrorInfo; OBJECT_ENTRY; QueryInterface; Release; USES_CONVERSION; VariantCopy; VariantInit
Note
Some of the samples, such as this one, have not been modified to reflect the changes in the Visual C++ wizards, libraries, and compiler, but still demonstrate how to complete your desired task.
