TOleContainer._Release Method

Called when an application releases a component interface.

Pascal

function _Release: Integer; stdcall;

C++

__fastcall __stdcall int _Release();

Description

__Release is a basic implementation of the IInterface method, _Release.

__Release returns the resulting value of the reference count for the component's interface.

Note:

In all other cases, __Release simply returns –1 and takes no action. This allows the component to implement interfaces where reference counting is not required. More sophisticated components should override __Release to implement reference counting.
