I believe this method should not be present in Control. I am
not sure what a Control would do with such a call. It would be highly
undesirable for a control to be required to implement this call since it would
require the control have logic present at runtime that would only be usable at
design time (and complicated logic at that). Ole and ActiveX have a similar
method, but ActiveX controls are expected not to implement it (isn't ActiveX
lovely). Neither we, ATL, nor MFC (for controls) implement this call. I am also
not aware of any containers that would actually call it. Maybe it should be
moved down to the View interface or Embeddable. This seems like a very natural
call for a spreadsheet or word-processor to implement but very unnatural for a
control. No control spec that I am aware of, ours, ActiveX, and JavaBeans, has
require the control handle its own undo.
Chuck.
