Force MIDL to generate TLB with local interfaces

Hi,

I'm using MIDL to generate TypeLibraries containing some AX interfaces. After spending several day trying to find out why stuff doesn't work I finally found out, that the type library contained the remote interface definitions (e.g. IViewObject::RemoteDraw() vs. IViewObject::Draw()).

I used the following IDL file:

[
uuid(E6951A62-58D0-4500-B15F-F419E00EBD91), // Any valid GUID
helpstring("OLE Type Library"),
version(1.0)
]

library USOLETLB // This will be the package name
{
importlib("stdole.tlb");
import "ocidl.idl";
import "ObjIdl.idl";

interface IViewObject;
interface IViewObjectEx;
}

Is there any way to force MIDL to create a TLB containing the local interface definitions?

Thanks,

Udo
