# IOleItemContainer::IsRunning

Indicates whether the object identified by the specified name is running.

HRESULT IsRunning(

LPOLESTR pszItem | //Pointer to string containing name of object
); |

Parameter

pszItem
  [in] Pointer to a zero-terminated wide character string (two bytes per character) containing the container’s name for the object.

Return Values

S_OK
  The specified object is running.
S_FALSE
  The object is not running.
MK_E_NOOBJECT
  The parameter pszItem does not identify an object in this container.

Remarks

The item moniker implementation of IMoniker::IsRunning calls this method.

#### Notes to Implementers

Your implementation of IOleItemContainer::IsRunning should first determine whether pszItem identifies one of the container’s objects. If it does not, your implementation should return MK_E_NOOBJECT. If the object is not loaded, your implementation should return S_FALSE. If it is loaded, your implementation can call the OleIsRunning function to determine whether it is running.

If pszItem names a pseudo-object, your implementation can simply return S_OK because a pseudo-object is running whenever its container is running.
