Thanks for the report, I hope you get to discover the rest of the features! 🥰
The MSO CommandBar issue is a weird one, it seems we already have all the necessary information to correctly identify the implemented interfaces there; surely something must be weird with the way they're made that somehow confuses our resolver into failing to identify the interface, because it's the same code for all COM libraries!
As for ByRef returns, that's a known and deliberate limitation of the inspection, although we could certainly make an exception for library functions since the motivation is about the performance penalty incurred by tracking whether an argument passed to a ByRef parameter is actually assigned in the called procedure or not (which would be a rabbit hole); I think it's reasonable to treat out
parameters as an assignment to the argument expression, assuming that expression resolves to a known identifier.
FWIW there is the same issue with the MSXML2 lib
Public Sub AddFileToVSProjUsingXmlObject(ByVal Name As String)
Dim file As MSXML2.IXMLDOMDocument2
Set file = New MSXML2.DOMDocument60
'To the variable 'file' of declared type 'msxm16.dll:MSXML2.lXMLDOMDocument2' a value is set assigned with the incompatible declared type 'msxm16.dll:MSXML2.DOMDocument60'.
' read file from disk
With New Scripting.FileSystemObject
file.Load .GetFolder(ActiveWorkbook.path).SubFolders("DSP").Files("TestU.vcxproj").path
End With
' set namespace for XPath query
file.setProperty "SelectionNamespaces", "xmlns:msb='" & file.DocumentElement.NamespaceURI & "'"
' get ClCompile ItemGroup
Dim itemGroup As IXMLDOMElement
Set itemGroup = file.SelectSingleNode("//msb:ItemGroup[msb:ClCompile]")
' To the variable 'itemGroup' of declared type 'msxm16.dll:MSXML2-lXMLDOMElement' a value is set assigned with the incompatible declared type 'msxm16.dll:MSXML2-lXMLDOMNode'
' clone the last node. Do not clone its children (if any)
Dim newNode As MSXML2.IXMLDOMElement
Set newNode = itemGroup.ChildNodes(itemGroup.ChildNodes.Length - 1).CloneNode(False)
' To the variable 'newNode' of declared type 'msxm16. dll:MSXML2.lXMLDOMElement' a value is set assigned with the incompatible declared type Vmsxm16.dll:MSXML2.lXMLDOMNode'.
' update new node and append it to IemGroup
newNode.Attributes.getNamedItem("Include").NodeValue = "..\TESTS\TestUAuto_" & Name & ".c"
itemGroup.appendChild newNode
' To the variable 'newChild' of declared type 'msxm16.dll:MSXML2. IXMLDOMNode' a value is set assigned with the incompatible declared type 'newNode'.
' TODO do the same with ClInclude part
file.Save ActiveWorkbook.path & "\TestA.vcxproj"
End Sub

Description
Hello. Firstly, thanks for the great tool - improved vba project explorer is what I had been thinking about for years - but never had enough time to develop)
I was using mostly project explorer only, but few days ago installed new version - and decided to explore other functionality. During tesing "Code inspections" was detected some behavior, which seems questionable. Found 2 typical situations: (1) assigning to instance of class X value, which declared type is interface, implemented by X (2) passing variable to method, which returns result in passed variable
Screenshots attached below As a user - I have absolutely no problem with described behavior - so informing just in case this could be useful for developers. Regards
