C# equivalent of VB6's GetObject

Question

The following VB6 code connects to some third party software and forces a login with the admin username and password:

Set obj = GetObject(, \"workspace.appli         


        

Answer 1

GetObject returns a COM control. You'd have to work with COM Interop to do this in C#. (This isn't trivial.)

Answer 2

Even if you're working with c#, you can use all classes and methods provided by Vb.Net, including GetObject.

Just add a reference to the .NET Component "Microsoft.VisualBasic".

Once you have added the reference, you are able to call Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.CreateObject() or Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.GetObject()

Answer 3

Marshal.GetActiveObject Method
