Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
public Object Unwrap()

Return Value

Type: System.Object
The wrapped object.

Implements

IObjectHandle.Unwrap()

Notes to Callers

A ObjectHandle is a remoted MarshalByRefObject that is tracked by the remoting lifetime service. A call to the current method can fail if the lifetime lease on the ObjectHandle expires.

The following code example demonstrates how to activate an object in another AppDomain, retrieve a proxy to it with the Unwrap method, and use the proxy to access the remote object.

// Creates an instance of MyType defined in the assembly called ObjectHandleAssembly.
ObjectHandle obj = domain.CreateInstance("ObjectHandleAssembly", "MyType");

// Unwrapps the proxy to the MyType object created in the other AppDomain.
MyType testObj = (MyType)obj.Unwrap();

if(RemotingServices.IsTransparentProxy(testObj))
   Console.WriteLine("The unwrapped object is a proxy.");
else
   Console.WriteLine("The unwrapped object is not a proxy!");    

Console.WriteLine("");
Console.Write("Calling a method on the object located in an AppDomain with the hash code ");
Console.WriteLine(testObj.GetAppDomainHashCode());
