QueryInterface uses GUIDs, and an interface with a GUID should not change.This is not conceptually compatible with our versioning scheme.
If I, as a mere deadly FB user, may butt in here, I really really think QueryInterface and IUnkown compatibility is not good for FB.
1. FB is multi platform, while IUnknown is inherently tied to Microsoft. (Or am I wrong about this?)
2. IUnknown compatibility would imply a lot of other stuff that FB doesn't want, re. COM etc. Although that may not be required per se, just because of IUnknown compatibility, it is in people's minds very tightly coupled with COM. This is not good. FB is not a COM object and shouldn't be. Ever. Please. ;-)
I think QueryInterface and IUnkown would confuse more than help. Kjell -- ------------------------------ Kjell Rilbe DataDIA AB E-post: kjell.ri...@datadia.se Telefon: 08-761 06 55 Mobil: 0733-44 24 64
