is DISPID_VALUE reliable for invokes on IDispatchs from scripts?

Question

Continuing from this question, i am confused whether DISPID_VALUE on IDispatch::Invoke() for script functions and properties (JavaScript in my case

Answer 1

It should be reliable for invokes on objects from scripts if the script defines it consistently. This should be the case for JScript/Javascript in MSHTML, but unfortunately there is really sparse documentation on the subject, I don't have any solid proof in-hand.

In my own experience, a Javascript function passed to attachEvent() should always be consistent- an object received that is a 'function' can only have one callable method that matches itself. Hence the default method is the only one you can find, with DISPID 0. Javascript functions don't ordinarily have member functions, although i'm sure there is a way for this to be possible. If it did have member functions, you would see them the same way as member functions on objects. Member functions in JScript will always be consistent with regard to IDispatchEx, according to the rules of expando functions, as any functions added to an object count as expandos.
