Stores a given object and associates it with the specified name.

Namespace: System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

public:
[SecurityCriticalAttribute]
static void SetData(
	String^ name,
	Object^ data
)

Parameters

name: Type: System::String^
The name with which to associate the new item in the call context.

data: Type: System::Object^
The object to store in the call context.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
SecurityException	The immediate caller does not have infrastructure permission.

The following code example demonstrates the use of the SetData method to transmit Principal and Identity Objects to a remote location for identification. To view the code for the LogicalCallContextData class used in this sample, see the example for the ILogicalThreadAffinative interface. To view the code for the HelloServiceClass class used in this sample, see the example for the GetData method. To view the code for the server class used in this sample, see the example for the RegisterActivatedServiceType class.
