General Info On The INTERFACE Keyword?

If you have a separately declared PUBLIC INTERFACE and then IMPLEMENT that INTERFACE.

1) My general question: Is an INTERFACE simply a means to ensure that a CLASS implements all the methods defined in an interface and to ensure that they can only be implemented once?

I have noticed that a method that IMPLEMENTS an INTERFACE method can still have overloads though. :-)

If so, when combined with INHERITANCE though I believe I can finally see the use for defining an INTERFACE!!

2) Do you have to use an interface when linking to a VB6 project ( is this via Component Object Model or COM ) and if so, do any attibutes need to be applied when doing so?

Here is a code snippet.

creating a PUBLIC INTERFACE outside of any CLASS. I guess this would not normally be done from an OOP point of view?

Implements MyActions
Implements Whatever
