new(p1, p2 = v2, *args, p4 = {}) public

Returns a new WIN32OLE object(OLE Automation object). The first argument server specifies OLE Automation server. The first argument should be CLSID or PROGID. If second argument host specified, then returns OLE Automation object on host. If :license keyword argument is provided, IClassFactory2::CreateInstanceLic is used to create instance of licensed server.

WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application') # => Excel OLE Automation WIN32OLE object.
WIN32OLE.new('{00024500-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}') # => Excel OLE Automation WIN32OLE object.
