default arguments for COM interface functions

Hi:

Is it possible to use default arguments for COM interface functions
when programming in C++? Can one do in the component's IDL file? I
know it is possible in Visual Basic.

Thanks,

MJ

'COM' has not meaning in the C++ language. Any C++
function can have default argument(s), subject to the
syntactical rules governing them. If 'COM' somehow
prohibits this, to find out why, read about it where
it's topical. Here, it's not.
Can one do in the component's IDL file?
Just as 'COM', 'IDL' has no meaning in C++.
I
know it is possible in Visual Basic.


Here, we only speak (standard) C++.

Try asking about this in a Windows programming group.
Find the Windows groups at www.msdn.microsoft.com
and/or www.groups.google.com and/or www.usenet.org
