[C/C++]

C/C++ Syntax

HRESULT get_input (VARIANT * pVar);
HRESULT put_input (VARIANT pVar);

Parameters

pVar [out, retval][in]
The input XML to which to apply the transformation. This can be a URL (string/BSTR), a DOMDocument object, an IXMLDOMNode or any object that supports ISequentialStream, IStream, or IPersistStream. If applying the transformation to an IXMLDOMNode, any node type and any threading model can be specified. If this argument is Null, the existing input will be cleared.

C/C++ Return Values

E_FAIL
The value returned if readyState is READYSTATE_INTERACTIVE.
E_INVALIDARG
The value returned if the variant is not VT_DISPATCH or VT_UNKNOWN.
E_NOINTERFACE
The value returned if the argument does not support IStream or IXMLDOMNode.

Remarks

Setting this property resets the state of the processor.
