[local] method

[Chris Carter]

Hi,

I am defining a COM interface in C#. The interface has the following method:
[local] HRESULT CopyContentToFileEx(
[in] PFIO_CONTEXT pFIOCopy,
[in] BOOL fDotStuffed,[in,unique] IMailMsgNotify *pNotify);

MSDN says: This method is marked with the [local] IDL attribute. This means
no proxy/stub code is generated for the header file, and the method can only
be called on an interface in the same apartment (i.e. no marshalling can
occur).

My question is, how do I mark this method as [local] in C#?

Thanks

Hi Chris i'm by no way advanced at C# as many regular in the forum will
know but I have googled your problem - and it would appear that this
may help you, as there is no local IDL attribute in C#

Chris,

You can't and don't have to. Since this is a predefined system
interface you shouldn't include it in a typelib of your own anyway (be
sure to mark it as ComImport).
