Extended Error Information

Use the ISupportErrorInfo method InterfaceSupportsErrorInfo to determine if the object supports extended error information. If the object supports extended error info, VC++ developers should use the OLE/COM IErrorInfo interface to access the ErrorInfo object. Visual Basic developers should use the global error object Err to retrieve this extended error information.

Interfaces

Interfaces	Description
ISupportErrorInfo (esriSystem)	Indicates whether a specific interface can return Automation error objects.

Remarks

Use the XMLWriter coclass when you wish to provide access to members that control the sequential writing of XML. XMLStream needs to be hooked-up in order to write to the stream.
