public:
 virtual IntPtr SupportsInterface(Guid % iid);
public virtual IntPtr SupportsInterface (ref Guid iid);
abstract member SupportsInterface : Guid -> nativeint
override this.SupportsInterface : Guid -> nativeint
Public Overridable Function SupportsInterface (ByRef iid As Guid) As IntPtr

Parameters

iid
Guid

A reference to the requested interface.

Returns

IntPtr

nativeint

A pointer to the requested interface.

Examples

[SecurityPermission(SecurityAction::LinkDemand, Flags = SecurityPermissionFlag::Infrastructure)]
IntPtr SupportsInterface( Guid * /*myGuid*/ )
{
   Console::WriteLine( "SupportsInterface method called" );
   
   // Object reference is requested for communication with unmanaged objects
   // in the current process through COM.
   IntPtr myIntPtr = this->GetCOMIUnknown( false );
   
   // Stores an unmanaged proxy of the object.
   this->SetCOMIUnknown( myIntPtr );
   
   // return COM Runtime Wrapper pointer.
   return myIntPtr;
}
public override IntPtr SupportsInterface(ref Guid myGuid)
{
    Console.WriteLine("SupportsInterface method called");
    // Object reference is requested for communication with unmanaged objects
    // in the current process through COM.
    IntPtr myIntPtr = this.GetCOMIUnknown(false);
    // Stores an unmanaged proxy of the object.
    this.SetCOMIUnknown(myIntPtr);
    // return COM Runtime Wrapper pointer.
    return myIntPtr;
}

Public Overrides Function SupportsInterface(ByRef myGuid As Guid) As IntPtr
   Console.WriteLine("SupportsInterface method called")
   ' Object reference is requested for communication with unmanaged objects
   ' in the current process through COM.
   Dim myIntPtr As IntPtr = Me.GetCOMIUnknown(False)

Remarks

The SupportsInterface method allows the current proxy instance to implement additional COM interfaces on behalf of the server object that the current instance represents. The current method generates the requested interface and returns a pointer to it. The types of COM interfaces that can be generated by this method depend on the proxy type, which in turn might depend on the type of the server object that the current proxy instance represents.
