IClassActivator (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

This interface specifies a method that retrieves a class object.

When to Implement

No implementation of a moniker or an object supporting IClassActivator exists within the system.

Implement the IClassActivator interface if you are writing a custom moniker type that you want to be able to compose to the left of a class moniker or other moniker that supports binding to IClassActivator.

When to Use

Use IClassActivator if you write a custom moniker class that should behave similarly to class monikers when composed to the right of other monikers. File monikers also use this interface.
