/proxy

midl /proxy proxy_file_name

proxy_file_name

Specifies a filename that overrides the default interface proxy filename. Filenames can be explicitly quoted using double quotes (") to prevent the shell from interpreting the special characters.

Example

midl /proxy my_proxy.c filename.idl 
 

Remarks

The /proxy switch specifies the name of the interface proxy file for a COM interface. The specified filename replaces the default filename obtained by adding _P.C to the name of the IDL file. The /proxy switch does not affect RPC interfaces.

If proxy_file_name does not include an explicit path, the file is written to the current directory or to the directory specified by the /out switch. An explicit path in proxy_file_name overrides the /out switch specification.

For a more detailed description of the interface proxy file and other files generated by the MIDL compiler, see General MIDL Command-line Syntax.
