I have a file with binary data and a dll where I have to pass a
OLE_HANDLE which points to the data in the file.
How do I read the data (i presume as binaryreader) and then pass the
OLE_HANDLE to the function?

Can you be more specific about which API you are calling? It may be that
just loading the bytes from a FileStream will not work if the service you
are calling expects a handle of some sort.
In searching MSDN, I only find refernces to OLE_HANDLE where it refers to a
GDI handle, like an Icon or a Bitmap from COM-interop interraces such as
IPicture. (Usually, such such handles are passed between COM and .Net as
type System.IntPtr.)

It's a method of an ActiveX control that we are using. It reads it's
own data from the blob which has to be passed in a OLE_HANDLE.

Hi there,
This is probably a really dump question but I'm stuck and need a leg-
up with this.
I'm writing a C++ interop layer that couples a managed plugin to an
unmanaged host (specifically its a managed implementation for a
Virtual Studio Technology -VST- plugin). So I'm writing a thin C++
layer that does little more than marshal calls to the managed layer.
In this scenario I need to call a managed method with an out parameter

VC has a __cdecl specifier which allows functions and methods to
be called with varying parameter count.
(I understand this is the default for functions in general but in VC,
instances use another convention unless they have an ellipsis
argument.)
I can force GCC and other compilers to use such a convention by
declaring all methods with an ellipsis, but I'd rather not clutter my
method definitions with these.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
