[ruby-core:60239] [ruby-trunk - Feature #6613] VT_RECORD, IRecordInfo Support in WIN32OLE

Issue #6613 has been updated by Dominic Sisneros.


Still no progress on this??  I wish I knew C better

----------------------------------------
Feature #6613: VT_RECORD, IRecordInfo Support in WIN32OLE
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6613#change-44717

----------------------------------------
WIN32OLE has no support for VT_RECORD VARIANTS.  Python and Perl use the
functions GetRecordInfoFromTypeInfo and GetRecordInfoFromGuids to add
support for VT_RECORD and the IRecordInfo interface.

suggest having a class IRecordInfo and support for generating a Class 
for the UDT to use this Record/Struct in ruby

The method starting on 1395 needs a case statement for VT_RECORD and a way to turn that into a IRECORD class

static void *
get_ptr_of_variant(VARIANT *pvar)
{
    switch(V_VT(pvar)) {
    case VT_UI1:
        return &V_UI1(pvar);
        break;


The IDL definitions for the methods are as follows

HRESULT GetRecordInfoFromTypeInfo(
  __in   ITypeInfo *pTypeInfo,
  __out  IRecordInfo **ppRecInfo
);

HRESULT GetRecordInfoFromGuids(
  __in   REFGUID rGuidTypeLib,
  __in   ULONG uVerMajor,
  __in   ULONG uVerMinor,
  __in   LCID lcid,
  __in   REFGUID rGuidTypeInfo,
  __out  IRecordInfo **ppRecInfo
);

here is the CTYPES definition for python that adds this support

class IRecordInfo(IUnknown):
    # C:/vc98/include/OAIDL.H 5974
    _iid_ = GUID("{0000002F-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}")

    def GetFieldNames(self, *args):
        count = c_ulong()
        self.__com_GetFieldNames(count, None)
        array = (BSTR * count.value)()
        self.__com_GetFieldNames(count, array)
        result = array[:]
        # XXX Should SysFreeString the array contents. How to?
        return result

IRecordInfo. _methods_ = [
        COMMETHOD([], HRESULT, 'RecordInit',
                  (['in'], c_void_p, 'pvNew')),
