Automation - Type Libraries

Type Libraries

A type library is a file or part of a file that provides information about the functionality of a COM object. More specifically, the type library contains information about classes. A class is a description of an object. Type libraries themselves do not store actual objects; they only store information about those objects.

A type library specifies all the information an Automation client needs to call a method or property for an object. For properties, the type library describes the value it accepts or returns. For methods, the type library provides a list of all the arguments the method can accept, tells you the data type of each argument, and indicates whether an argument is required.

Type libraries can appear in any of the following forms:

• A resource in a .dll file
• A resource in an .exe file
• A stand-alone type library file (.tlb)
