Summary

Initialize the COM library in the current thread.

Package

com

Signature

co-initialize &optional co-init

Arguments

Description

The function co-initialize initializes COM for the current thread. This must be called by every thread that uses COM client or server functions.

The default value of co-init is COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED. Other flags are allowed as for the dwCoInit argument to CoInitializeEx.

LispWorks takes care of cleaning up COM when a thread exits, but you can also do this explicitly using co-uninitialize.
