BonoboItemContainer confusion

[Owen Fraser-Green <owen discobabe net>]

Hi,

I'm a little confused as to the purpose and status of BonoboItemContainer. The
IDL comment reads:

  bonobo-item-container.idl: Implements a generic container for objects

(which, incidentally is what I want to use it for). The API documentation, however, describes a different interface and remarks that it has been deprecated by BonoboItemHandler... which doesn't exist.
The source code comments read:

  bonobo-item-container.h: a generic container for monikers.

and proceed with a similar description to the API documentation involving Embedables, ClientSites and such. The implementation, however appears to correspond to the IDL.

I think I've figured out how to use it although I can't find anything which actually uses it.

Is it safe to use. Or is it a case of try it out and post my findings? :)
Any help greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Owen
