Provides low-level access to a COM interface.

This trait is automatically used by the generated bindings and should not be used directly.

Provided methods

unsafe fn vtable(&self) -> &Self::Vtable

Returns the vtable for the current interface.

unsafe fn assume_vtable<T: Interface>(&self) -> &T::Vtable

Returns the vtable for an assumed interface. The name comes from Box's assume_init method as it assumes the vtable is implemented by the current interface's vtable (e.g. a parent interface).

fn cast<T: Interface>(&self) -> Result<T>

Attempts to cast the current interface to another interface using QueryInterface. The name cast is preferred to query because there is a WinRT method named query but not one named cast.
