Access pointer in Object Reference property through C API

Solved!
Go to solution
I use Object Reference properties to store pointers. I now need to access these pointers through the C API. I searched the documentation, header files and net but haven't found any way to do it. TS_PropertyGetValIDispatch does return something, but I don't even know what it is. Does anybody have any idea how this can be done? Thanks, Marcel

Answering my own question for future readers: using Get/SetValVariant one can get and set pointer properties. Get returns an IDispatch variant for normal Object References and an unsigned integer variant for Object References containing a pointer.
