The information in this article applies to:
- The Microsoft Active Template Library (ATL) 3.0, included with:
- Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Enterprise Edition, version 6.0
- Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Professional Edition, version 6.0
- Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Learning Edition, version 6.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When calling IDispatch::GetIDsOfNames() for an ATL server and named arguments
are passed in, you receive the following error:
0x80020006 (DISP_E_UNKNOWNNAME)
If the client is Visual Basic and you call a method in an ATL server passing
named arguments then you receive this error message:
Run-time error '448':
Named argument not found
CAUSE
=====
In the function CComTypeInfoHolder::GetIDsOfNames() (called by
IDispatch::GetIDsOfNames()), ATL looks up the DISPID through a cached array. If
the call to GetIDsOfNames() includes named arguments then these entries are not
in the array. In that case, CComTypeInfoHolder::GetIDsOfNames() delegates to
ITypeInfo::GetIDsOfNames(). It calls ITypeInfo::GetIDsOfNames() once for each
named argument in the method. To get the IDs of named arguments then
ITypeInfo::GetIDsOfNames() needs to be called with the method name in addition
to the named arguments.
RESOLUTION
==========
This bug has been fixed in Visual Studio 6.0 Service Pack 3.
