)

Parameters

unknown: Type: System::IntPtr
A managed pointer to an IUnknown interface.

Return Value

Type: System::Object^

A unique RCW for the specified IUnknown interface.

The GetUniqueObjectForIUnknown method ensures that you receive a unique RCW, because it does not match an IUnknown pointer to an existing object. Use this method when you have to create a unique RCW that is not impacted by other code that calls the ReleaseComObject method.
