typedef struct SOMESTRUCT
{
    int     i;
    short   s;
} SOMESTRUCT;

cpp_quote("#ifndef __cplusplus")
typedef SOMESTRUCT	*SOMESTRUCT_ref_t;
cpp_quote("#else")
cpp_quote("typedef SOMESTRUCT   &SOMESTRUCT_ref_t;")
cpp_quote("#endif /* !__cplusplus */")

interface IOther
{
    HRESULT TellSOMESTRUCT([in] int i, [in] short s);
}

cpp_quote("#ifndef __cplusplus")
typedef IOther		*IOther_ref_t;
cpp_quote("#else")
cpp_quote("typedef IOther  &IOther_ref_t;")
cpp_quote("#endif /* !__cplusplus */")

interface IInterface
{
    HRESULT NonNullMethod(  [in, ref] SOMESTRUCT_ref_t pss,
                            [in] IOther_ref_t pii2);
