This method is specific to version 3, or higher, of the OS/2 operating system.
This instance method returns the unique, text object ID that was assigned to the given object when it was installed or changed (with wpSetup).
Syntax
_wpQueryObjectID(somSelf)
Parameters
- somSelf (WPObject *) - input
- Pointer to the object on which the method is being invoked.
- Points to an object of class WPObject.
Returns
- pszObjectID (PSZ) - returns
- String containing a unique object ID.
- For example, "<WP_DESKTOP>".
How to Override
This method is generally not overridden.
Remarks
The install routine uses this variable to ensure that a given object is never re-installed, thereby avoiding duplication of objects. The object ID is always lost when the object is copied; therefore, only one object ever exists for a given object ID.
Example Code
#define INCL_WINWORKPLACE #include <os2.h> WPObject *somSelf; /* Pointer to the object on which the method is being invoked. */ PSZ pszObjectID; /* String containing a unique object ID. */ pszObjectID = _wpQueryObjectID(somSelf);
