Namespace:  System
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

'Declaration
Public Sub DoCallBack ( _
	callBackDelegate As CrossAppDomainDelegate _
)

Parameters

callBackDelegate
Type: System.CrossAppDomainDelegate
A delegate that specifies a method to call.

Implements

_AppDomain.DoCallBack(CrossAppDomainDelegate)

ExceptionCondition
ArgumentNullException

callBackDelegate is Nothing.

callBackDelegate can specify a marshal-by-value, MarshalByRefObject, or ContextBoundObject.

The following sample demonstrates using a static DoCallBack method.


Public Module PingPong

    Private greetings As String = "PONG!"

    Sub Main()
        Dim otherDomain As AppDomain = AppDomain.CreateDomain("otherDomain")

        greetings = "PING!"
        MyCallBack()
        otherDomain.DoCallBack(AddressOf MyCallBack)

        ' Output:
        '   PING! from defaultDomain
        '   PONG! from otherDomain
     End Sub 'Main

     Sub MyCallBack()
        Dim name As String = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName
        If name = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ApplicationName Then
            name = "defaultDomain"
        End If
        Console.WriteLine(greetings + " from " + name)
     End Sub 'MyCallBack

End Module 'PingPong


The following sample demonstrates using the DoCallBack method by value.


<Serializable> _
Public Class PingPong
     Private greetings As String = "PING!"

     Public Shared Sub Main()
        Dim otherDomain As AppDomain = AppDomain.CreateDomain("otherDomain")

        Dim pp As New PingPong()
        pp.MyCallBack()
        pp.greetings = "PONG!"
        otherDomain.DoCallBack(AddressOf pp.MyCallBack)

        ' Output:
        '   PING! from defaultDomain
        '   PONG! from otherDomain
    End Sub 'Main

    Public Sub MyCallBack()
        Dim name As String = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName
        If name = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ApplicationName Then
            name = "defaultDomain"
        End If
        Console.WriteLine(greetings + " from " + name)
    End Sub 'MyCallBack

End Class 'PingPong


The following sample demonstrates using the DoCallBack method by reference.


Public Class PingPong
    Inherits MarshalByRefObject

    Private greetings As String = "PING!"

    Public Shared Sub Main()
        Dim otherDomain As AppDomain = AppDomain.CreateDomain("otherDomain")

        Dim pp As New PingPong()
        pp.MyCallBack()
        pp.greetings = "PONG!"
        otherDomain.DoCallBack(AddressOf pp.MyCallBack)

        ' Output:
        '   PING! from default domain
        '   PONG! from default domain
     End Sub 'Main

    ' Callback will always execute within defaultDomain due to inheritance from
    ' MarshalByRefObject
    Public Sub MyCallBack()
        Dim name As String = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName
        If name = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ApplicationName Then
            name = "defaultDomain"
        End If
        Console.WriteLine((greetings + " from " + name))
    End Sub 'MyCallBack

End Class 'PingPong
