This is a small piece of code to initialize a non registered interface. In this example, the focus is msdia120.dll
Example of usage and how to call the interface
Although it seems to be not mandatory that you call the dll using a UNICODE path to msdia library, i posted as unicode on this example, because it is mandatory to use it UNICODE path whenever you wants to load your pdb file. So, to make it easier to understand, i maintained the same unicode version and not a mix between unicode and ascii
To maintain things simple. It is wise to load the dll name in the same path as your main app. This is why it is used here simple as "U$ "msdia120.dll" and not "U$ "c:\temp\msdia120.dll" or "mypath\U$ "msdia120.dll" etc
[g_pDiaDataSource: D$ 0]
call InitializeDiaInterface {U$ "msdia120.dll" 0}, CLSID_DiaSourceAlt, IID_IDiaDataSource, g_pDiaDataSource
If eax <> &S_OK ; If eax is not S_OK, do error case
xor eax eax ; exit false on error cases
ExitP
End_If
Main code Initialization
The function DllGetClassObject inside msdia is the same one as when you call IClassFactory interface. So, the documentation can be seeing here (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms680760%28v=vs.85%29.aspx)

The icall macro
; Example : iCall Lock D$BackSurfacePtr &NULL DDSURFACEDESC DDLOCK_WAIT &NULL
[iCall | mov edx #2 | mov edx D$edx | push #L>3 | push #2 | call D$edx+#1 ]
The icall macro is the way to call some Com Interfaces containing the STDMETHOD. It simply used edx register to gain access to the internal table pointers of the interface that calls the different functions.
Example:
icall ICLASS_FACTORY_CREATE_INSTANCE D@ppv, 0, D@pIID, D@pOut
is unrolled as:
mov edx D@ppv ; This is the proper way to go inside the Com interface.
mov edx D$edx ; the address of the table inside com
push D@pOut ; 3rd parameter of the Com function
push D@pIID ; 2nd parameter of the Com function
