Edit

Gets (and creates if necessary) the instance as its full XAML type of the specified IXamlDirect.

This documentation applies to WinUI 2 for UWP (for WinUI in the Windows App SDK, see the Windows App SDK namespaces).

public:
 Platform::Object ^ GetObject(Platform::Object ^ xamlDirectObject);

IInspectable GetObject(IInspectable const& xamlDirectObject);

public object GetObject(object xamlDirectObject);

Public Function GetObject (xamlDirectObject As Object) As Object

Parameters

xamlDirectObject: Object
Platform::Object

IInspectable

Refers to the specific IXamlDirect.

Returns

Object

Platform::Object

IInspectable

Returns the instance of the full XAML type (typically, but not always, a DependencyObject).

Examples

The following example shows how to convert an IXamlDirect instance pointing to a Border element to its full XAML type.

XamlDirect xd = XamlDirect.GetDefault();

IXamlDirect border = xd.CreateInstance(XamlTypeIndex.Border);
Border borderDO = (Border)xd.GetObject(border);

XamlDirect^ xd = XamlDirect::GetDefault();

IXamlDirect^ border = xd->CreateInstance(XamlTypeIndex::Border);
Border^ borderDO = dynamic_cast<Border^>(xd->GetObject(border));

Remarks

Use this method to convert from a XamlDirect instance to its full XAML type. This results in the creation of a full object and hence the performance benefits of staying within the XamlDirect APIs will be lost for that specific IXamlDirect instance.
