Synchronously executes the delegate on the thread that created this object and marshals the call to the creating thread.

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Function Invoke ( _
method As Delegate, _
args As Object() _
) As Object
Dim instance As ISynchronizeInvoke
Dim method As [Delegate]
Dim args As Object()
Dim returnValue As Object
returnValue = instance.Invoke(method, _

array<Object^>^ args
)
function Invoke(
method : Delegate,
args : Object[]
) : Object
Parameters
- method
- Type: System..::.Delegate
A Delegate that contains a method to call, in the context of the thread for the control.
- args
- Type: array<System..::.Object>[]()[]
An array of type Object that represents the arguments to pass to the given method. This can be nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if no arguments are needed.
Return Value
Type:
System..::.ObjectAn Object that represents the return value from the delegate being invoked, or nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the delegate has no return value.
Unlike BeginInvoke, this method operates synchronously, that is, it waits until the process completes before returning. Exceptions raised during the call are propagated back to the caller.
Use this method when calling a method from a different thread to marshal the call to the proper thread.
