Activator.GetObject() does not work when called via COM

[mkadlec99]

Hi,

I have a Windows Service written in C# that gets an object via
Remoting using the Activator.GetObject() and then calls a method on it.
When called via .NET apps, everything works great.

I made a .NET Interop wrapper that executes the same method, but when
I call the method via VB6, I get the following error:

"Trying to create a proxy to an unbound type."

This doesn't make sense to me, my base class is derived from
MarshalByRefObject, is there a COM limitation?

Mark.

There you go. Hope this can help you. VB.NET and C# should act the same:

I am going to play with it too.
Good luck.
