The IBinding interface provides methods that the client of an asynchronous moniker can call to control the progress of the bind operation. Asynchronous monikers call the client's IBindStatusCallback::OnStartBinding method to provide the client with a pointer to the IBinding interface.
Implementations of custom asynchronous monikers must provide this interface to allow control of the bind operation. Usually, this interface is implemented on a separate object created by the asynchronous moniker for a particular bind operation.
Clients of asynchronous monikers obtain a pointer to this interface when the moniker calls the client's IBindStatusCallback::OnStartBinding method. They typically keep a reference to this interface to be able to control the progress of the bind operation or to receive protocol-specific information about the outcome of the bind operation.
