\class QAxBindable
\brief The QAxBindable class provides an interface between a
QWidget and an ActiveX client.
\inmodule QAxServer
The functions provided by this class allow an ActiveX control to
communicate property changes to a client application. Inherit
your control class from both QWidget (directly or indirectly) and
this class to get access to this class's functions. The
\l{moc}{meta-object compiler} requires you to inherit from
QWidget first.
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_activeqt_control_qaxbindable.cpp 0
When implementing the property write function, use
requestPropertyChange() to get permission from the ActiveX client
application to change this property. When the property changes,
call propertyChanged() to notify the ActiveX client application
about the change. If a fatal error occurs in the control, use the
static reportError() function to notify the client.
Use the interface returned by clientSite() to call the ActiveX
client. To implement additional COM interfaces in your ActiveX
control, reimplement createAggregate() to return a new object of a
QAxAggregated subclass.
The ActiveQt \l{activeqt/opengl}{OpenGL} example shows how to use
QAxBindable to implement additional COM interfaces.

\c type and \c data attribute of the \c object tag to read data,

\class QAxAggregated
\brief The QAxAggregated class is an abstract base class for implementations of
additional COM interfaces.
\inmodule QAxServer
Create a subclass of QAxAggregated and reimplement
queryInterface() to support additional COM interfaces. Use
multiple inheritance from those COM interfaces. Implement the
IUnknown interface of those COM interfaces by delegating the
calls to \c QueryInterface(), \c AddRef() and \c Release() to the
interface provided by controllingUnknown().
Use the widget() method if you need to make calls to the QWidget
implementing the ActiveX control. You must not store that pointer
in your subclass (unless you use QPointer), as the QWidget can
be destroyed by the ActiveQt framework at any time.

Reimplement this pure virtual function to support additional COM

this pointer to the appropriate superclass.

Release() to the interface provided by this function.
