Detailed Description

This section describes all VirtualBox-specific COM result codes that may be returned by methods of VirtualBox COM interfaces in addition to standard COM result codes.

Note that along with the result code, every VirtualBox method returns extended error information through the IVirtualBoxErrorInfo interface on failure. This interface is a preferred way to present the error to the end user because it contains a human readable description of the error. Raw result codes, both standard and described in this section, are intended to be used by programs to analyze the reason of a failure and select an appropriate course of action without involving the end user (for example, retry the operation later or make a different call).

The standard COM result codes that may originate from our methods include:

E_INVALIDARG: Returned when the value of the method's argument is not within the range of valid values. This should not be confused with situations when the value is within the range but simply doesn't suit the current object state and there is a possibility that it will be accepted later (in such cases VirtualBox-specific codes are returned, for example, VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND).
E_POINTER: Returned if a memory pointer for the output argument is invalid (for example, null). When pointers representing input arguments (such as strings) are invalid, E_INVALIDARG is returned.
E_ACCESSDENIED: Returned when the called object is not ready. Since the lifetime of a public COM object cannot be fully controlled by the implementation, VirtualBox maintains the readiness state for all objects it creates and returns this code in response to any method call on the object that was deactivated by VirtualBox and is not functioning any more.
E_OUTOFMEMORY: Returned when a memory allocation operation fails.
