The GlobalType type exposes the following members.

Constructors

  Name Description
Protected method GlobalType Initializes a new instance of GlobalType.

Top

Properties

  Name Description
Public property ObjectType Gets the checked type of the GlobalType.

Top

Methods

  Name Description
Protected method ClearObjectType Clears the ObjectType property.
Public method CreateObjRef Security Critical. Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Public method Equals Checks if the specified object is equal to the current global type. (Overrides Object.Equals(Object).)
Protected method Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method GetHashCode Returns the hash code for the current global type. (Overrides Object.GetHashCode.)
Public method GetLifetimeService Security Critical. Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Protected method GetObjectType Returns the type of this global type.
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method InitializeLifetimeService Security Critical. Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected method MemberwiseClone(Boolean) Creates a shallow copy of the current MarshalByRefObject object. (Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.)
Protected method OnChanged Raises the Changed event.
Protected method OnChanging Raises the Changing event.
Protected method OnRemoved Raises the Removed event.
Protected method OnRemoving Raises the Removing event.
Protected method PerformChange Reinitializes the global type and notifies users to changes to its shape.
Protected method PerformRemove Clears the global type and notifies users of its removal.
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Events

  Name Description
Public event Changed Occurs after the current global type is modified.
Public event Changing Occurs before the current global type is modified.
Public event Removed Occurs after the current global type is removed from use.
Public event Removing Occurs before the current global type is removed from use.

Remarks

A global type is a standard instanced object, but the type for this object comes from a project in the solution or from generated code.

The GlobalType class provides data about a specific global type. You cannot create global types directly, but often you need to track them for type changes, additions, and removals. GlobalType inherits from MarshalByRefObject so that GlobalObject, which derives from GlobalType, can have its instances marshaled across domains.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
