Initializing Exposed Objects

To initialize OLE and the exposed objects, use the following functions:

• OleInitialize— Initializes OLE.
• CoRegisterClassObject—Registers the object's class factory with OLE so other applications can use it to create new objects.
• RegisterActiveObject— Registers the active object so other applications can connect to an existing object.

For more information on OleInitialize and CoRegisterClassObject, see the OLE Programmer’s Reference in the Win32 SDK.
