Controlling an Automation Server Using a Dual Interface

Go Up to Writing Client Code Based On Type Library Definitions

After using the automatically generated creator class to connect to the server, you call methods of the interface. For example,

var
  MyInterface : _Application;
begin
  MyInterface := CoWordApplication.Create;
  MyInterface.DoSomething;

TComApplication AppPtr = CoWordApplication_.Create();
AppPtr->DoSomething;

The interface and creator class are defined in the TypeLibName_TLB unit that is generated automatically when you import a type library.
