The IDLcomActiveX object class creates an IDL object that encapsulates an ActiveX control. IDL provides data type and other translation services, allowing IDL programs to access the ActiveX control's methods and properties using standard IDL syntax.
For detailed information on using the IDLcomActiveX object, see "Using ActiveX Controls in IDL" in the External Development Guide.
This class is a subclass of IDLcomIDispatch.
When an ActiveX control is instantiated, IDL creates a dynamic subclass of the IDLcomActiveX class. The dynamic subclass is used to provide a unique name for each component type, based on the COM class or program identifier. See "ActiveX Control Naming Scheme" in the External Development Guide for details.
IDLcomActiveX objects are always created automatically by IDL, as a result of a call to the WIDGET_ACTIVEX function. They should never be created manually.
Objects of this class have no properties of their own.
The IDLcomActiveX object class is a direct subclass of the IDLcomIDispatch class, and relies entirely on the superclass methods, providing none of its own.
