Property Page

[Roberto Sartori]

Hi.

Can I obtain COM object properties (in my case a DirectShow device) without
using OleCreatePropertyFrame?
What I want to do is to view object properties with my own UI, without using
the default interface of IPropertyFrame.
How can I do it?
How can I access directly to IPropertyPage collection of an object?

Thanks.

You can implement your own property frame object. See IPropertyPageSite

How can I access directly to IPropertyPage collection of an object?

You query the object for ISpecifyPropertyPages and call GetPages. You
get back an array of CLSIDs - each property page is a separate COM
object. You then create these objects with CoCreateInstance and call
IPropertyPage methods as appropriate.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
