This function determines whether a compound document object is currently in the running state.

Syntax

BOOL OleIsRunning(
  LPOLEOBJECT pObject
);

Parameters

• pObject
  [in] Pointer to the IOleObject interface on the object of interest.

Return Value

This function returns TRUE if the object is running; otherwise, the function returns FALSE.

Remarks

Passing invalid (and under some circumstances NULL) pointers into this function causes an unexpected termination of the application.

You can use OleIsRunning and IRunnableObject::IsRunning interchangeably.

OleIsRunning queries the object for a pointer to the IRunnableObject interface and calls its IsRunning method. If successful, the function returns the results of the call to IRunnableObject::IsRunning.

The implementation of OleIsRunning in earlier versions of OLE differs from that described here.
