Is embedding in COM automatic?

In COM, if I have an IBase interface and an IX interface that inherits from IBase, can I call the IBase methods using the IX pointer, and if not, why can I call Release () and AddRef () on any COM interface pointer? without a raise?

Yes, you can call any base method through a pointer to a derived one. This is why you can call AddRef()

, Release()

and QueryInterface()

through any interface pointer.
