Implements the frame of components in an ole-control-pane.
The pane class
ole-control-frame
implements the frame of components, that is it supports the
IOleInPlaceFrame
interface. When an ole-control-pane pane is created, it looks upwards in the hierarchy of panes, and if finds an
ole-control-frame
pane it uses this as the frame. It uses the first such pane found. When the object in the ole-control-pane calls
IOleInPlaceSite::GetWindowContext
, it gets back in the
ppframe arg
an interface associated with this frame.
Like ole-control-doc, a
ole-control-frame
can have only one sub-pane, which itself may contain many panes.
Normally the program does not need to do anything else with the
ole-control-frame
. It acts in response to resizing of the window and method calls from the object on the
IOleInPlaceFrame
interface.
Note that having a frame is optional, and ActiveX does not need it. It is required when embedding an application by ole-control-insert-object.
Note:
ole-control-frame
is implemented only in LispWorks for Windows. Load the functionality by
(require "embed")
.
Note: even though it is a subclass of pinboard-layout, normally you should not use the pinboard-layout functionality when using
ole-control-frame
.
