58 /** @brief This interface gives access to a single numerical value.
60 The %IAccessibleValue interface represents a single numerical value and should
61 be implemented by any class that supports numerical value like progress bars
62 and spin boxes. This interface lets you access the value and its upper and
63 lower bounds.
