4.10.2 Return Values of Interface Methods

Interface methods indicate success or failure of a method call by well defined return values (marked as [out, retval]). COM errors (HRESULT) must not be used to return FDT function related errors, except it is stated in the specification. If no return value is defined (e.g. for all Event methods) it is assumed that the method always succeeds.
