# IOleControlSite::LockInPlaceActive

Indicates whether or not a control should remain in-place active. Calls to this method typically nest an event to ensure that the object’s activation state remains stable throughout the processing of the event.

HRESULT LockInPlaceActive(

BOOL fLock | //Indicates whether to ensure the active state
); |

Parameters

fLock
  [in] Indicates whether to ensure the in-place active state (TRUE) or to allow activation to change (FALSE). When TRUE, a supporting container must not deactivate the in-place object until this method is called again with FALSE.

Return Values

S_OK
  The lock or unlock was made successfully.
E_NOTIMPL
  The container does not support in-place locking.

Remarks

This method affects the control’s in-place active state but not its UI-active state.
