IARGlobeControlDefault Interface

Provides access to members on the control.

Description

The IARGlobeControlDefault interface is the default dispatch interface that most development environments will automatically expose. For example, placing the ArcReaderGlobeControl in a container will typically generate an object called ArcReaderGlobeControl1. The properties and methods available directly on this object correspond to this interface, together with container specific properties and methods.

The IARGlobeControlDefault interface is a 'pure' dispatch interface, so can be extended with new properties and methods at future releases of ArcGIS. The methods and properteis are identical to the highest numbered main interface on the ArcReaderGlobeControl. For example,  IARGlobeControlDefault is equivalent to IARGlobeControl, but at future releases this could become IARGlobeControl2. By using the IARGlobeControlDefault interface you are guaranteed to always have access to the latest ArcReaderGlobeControl. 

There is a small performance overhead in making calls through to a pure dispatch interface, but to avoild this you can QI to a specific interface. In some development environments it is not possible to QI directly on the control to other COM interfaces, because the control is contained within a wrapper object. Use the Object property to get the real control before performing the QI.
