What You Need To Know About The GetInterfaceEntry Method
By Muhammad Azizul Hakim August 10, 2021

Use the GetInterfaceEntry method or DelphiVCL.Application.GetInterfaceEntry to return the entry for a specific interface implemented in a class.

GetInterfaceEntry returns the class entry for the interface specified by the IID parameter.

Note: In Delphi Code, IID can be an interface name. The compiler replaces this name with the actual GUID.

Note: COM objects can use GetInterfaceEntry to automate dispatch calls to a dual-IDispatch interface.
