win32utils devel - Aug 2009 - OLE, properties and methods

Hi,

With win32ole is there a way to list the available properties or methods of
an OLE object?

For example, with win32-sapi, the SpAudioFormat object has two properties
(Guid and Type) and two methods (GetWaveFormatEx, SetWaveFormatEx). How do I
list them?

Regards,

Dan

Do you want this?

irb(main):001:0> require "win32/sapi5"

irb(main):003:0> s = SpAudioFormat.new
=> #<Win32::SpAudioFormat:0x338a36c>
irb(main):004:0> s.ole_get_methods
=> [Type, Guid]
irb(main):005:0> s.ole_methods
=> [QueryInterface, AddRef, Release, GetTypeInfoCount, GetTypeInfo,
GetIDsOfName
s, Invoke, Type, Type, Guid, Guid, GetWaveFormatEx, SetWaveFormatEx, GetTypeInfo
Count, GetTypeInfo, GetIDsOfNames, Invoke]

Thanks. I just realized that the latest 1.8.6p-368 actually has
documentation for win32ole.c embedded in it now.

I''m not a fan of the method names they chose. I might put in some
aliases in
pr-win32ole. :)
