<ole-vector>

Sealed concrete primary class

Summary

This class allows you to use the Dylan vector protocol on one-dimensional vectors passed in an OLE Automation call.

Superclasses

<ole-array>  <vector> 

Description

This class allows you to use the Dylan vector protocol on one-dimensional vectors passed in an OLE Automation call.

You can use the function ole-vector just like vector to construct an <ole-vector> containing the function arguments.

Note: The Microsoft OLE/COM libraries allocate memory on the C heap for these vectors. This means that the memory is not automatically reclaimed by the Functional Developer garbage collector. You must call the function destroy on an <ole-vector> when you are finished with it.
