RealProxy.Invoke(IMessage) Method

Definition

When overridden in a derived class, invokes the method that is specified in the provided IMessage on the remote object that is represented by the current instance.

public:
 abstract System::Runtime::Remoting::Messaging::IMessage ^ Invoke(System::Runtime::Remoting::Messaging::IMessage ^ msg);
public abstract System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.IMessage Invoke (System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.IMessage msg);
abstract member Invoke : System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.IMessage -> System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.IMessage
Public MustOverride Function Invoke (msg As IMessage) As IMessage

Parameters

msg
IMessage

A IMessage that contains a IDictionary of information about the method call.

Returns

The message returned by the invoked method, containing the return value and any out or ref parameters.

Examples

Remarks

When the transparent proxy that is backed by the RealProxy is called, it delegates the calls to the Invoke method. The Invoke method transforms the message in the msg parameter into a IMethodCallMessage, and sends it to the remote object that is represented by the current instance of RealProxy.

The IMessage parameter provides a dictionary through the IMessage.Properties property. The dictionary contains name/value pairs of information about the method call, such as the name of the method called and its parameters.
