The IADsPathname interface parses the X.500 and Windows path in ADSI.
The IADsPathname interface can be used to:
- Set and get paths of ADSI objects in different formats.
- Extract or add each element for a given ADsPath.
- Construct ADsPaths to be used in queries of directory objects.
IADsPathname *pPathname=NULL;
HRESULT hr;
hr = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_Pathname,
NULL,
CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,
IID_IADsPathname,
(void**)&pPathname);
You can also invoke the New operator in Visual Basic:
Dim path As New Pathname
Or use the CreateObject function in VBScript, supplying "Pathname" as the ProgID.
Dim path
Set path = CreateObject("Pathname")
The IADsPathname interface uses two enumeration types: ADS_SETTYPE_ENUM, and ADS_FORMAT_ENUM.
Inheritance
The IADsPathname interface inherits from the IDispatch interface. IADsPathname also has these types of members:
Methods

| IADsPathname::GetEscapedElement Used to escape special characters in the input path. |
| IADsPathname::GetNumElements Retrieves the number of elements in the path. |
| IADsPathname::RemoveLeafElement Removes the last element from the directory path that has been set on the Pathname object. |
| IADsPathname::Retrieve The IADsPathname::Retrieve method retrieves the path of the object with different format types. |
