Examples

C++

ObjRef^ objRefSample = RemotingServices::GetObjRefForProxy( myRemoteObject );
Console::WriteLine( "***ObjRef Details***" );
Console::WriteLine( "URI:\t {0}", objRefSample->URI );
array<Object^>^channelData = objRefSample->ChannelInfo->ChannelData;
Console::WriteLine( "Channel Info:" );
for each(Object^ o in channelData)
   Console::WriteLine("\t{0}", o->ToString());
IEnvoyInfo^ envoyInfo = objRefSample->EnvoyInfo;
if ( envoyInfo == nullptr )
{
   Console::WriteLine( "This ObjRef does not have envoy information." );
}
else
{
   IMessageSink^ envoySinks = envoyInfo->EnvoySinks;
   Console::WriteLine( "Envoy Sink Class: {0}", envoySinks );
}
IRemotingTypeInfo^ typeInfo = objRefSample->TypeInfo;
Console::WriteLine( "Remote type name: {0}", typeInfo->TypeName );
Console::WriteLine( "Can my Object cast to a Bitmap? {0}", typeInfo->CanCastTo( System::Drawing::Bitmap::typeid, objRefSample ) );
Console::WriteLine( "Is this Object from this AppDomain? {0}", objRefSample->IsFromThisAppDomain() );
Console::WriteLine( "Is this Object from this process? {0}", objRefSample->IsFromThisProcess() );
