Examples

The following example shows how to use the Activator class to dynamically construct objects at run time.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Reflection;
using namespace System::Text;

public ref class SomeType
{
public:
    void DoSomething(int x)
    {
        Console::WriteLine("100 / {0} = {1}", x, 100 / x);
    }
};

void main()
{
    // Create an instance of the StringBuilder type using 
    // Activator.CreateInstance.
    Object^ o = Activator::CreateInstance(StringBuilder::typeid);

    // Append a string into the StringBuilder object and display the 
    // StringBuilder.
    StringBuilder^ sb = (StringBuilder^) o;
    sb->Append("Hello, there.");
    Console::WriteLine(sb);

    // Create an instance of the SomeType class that is defined in this 
    // assembly.
    System::Runtime::Remoting::ObjectHandle^ oh = 
        Activator::CreateInstanceFrom(Assembly::GetEntryAssembly()->CodeBase, 
                                      SomeType::typeid->FullName);

    // Call an instance method defined by the SomeType type using this object.
    SomeType^ st = (SomeType^) oh->Unwrap();

    st->DoSomething(5);
};

/* This code produces the following output:
 
Hello, there.
100 / 5 = 20
 */
using System;
using System.Reflection;
using System.Text;

{
    public void DoSomething(int x)

Remarks

The CreateInstance method creates an instance of a type defined in an assembly by invoking the constructor that best matches the specified arguments. If no arguments are specified, the constructor that takes no parameters, that is, the parameterless constructor, is invoked.

You must have sufficient permission to search for and call a constructor; otherwise, an exception is thrown. By default, only public constructors are considered during the search for a constructor. If no constructor or parameterless constructor can be found, an exception is thrown.

A binder parameter specifies an object that searches an assembly for a suitable constructor. You can specify your own binder and search criteria. If no binder is specified, a default binder is used. For more information, see the System.Reflection.Binder and System.Reflection.BindingFlags classes.

An evidence parameter affects the security policy and permissions for the constructor. For more information, see the System.Security.Policy.Evidence class.

An instance of a type can be created at a local or remote site. If the type is created remotely, an activation attribute parameter specifies the URI of the remote site. The call to create the instance might pass through intermediary sites before it reaches the remote site. Other activation attributes can modify the environment, or context, in which the call operates at the remote and intermediary sites.

If the instance is created locally, a reference to that object is returned. If the instance is created remotely, a reference to a proxy is returned. The remote object is manipulated through the proxy as if it were a local object.

The GetObject method creates a proxy to a currently running remote object, server-activated well-known object, or XML Web service. You can specify the connection medium, that is, the channel. For more information, see the System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.ChannelServices class.

Assemblies contain type definitions. The CreateInstance method creates an instance of a type from a currently running assembly. The CreateInstanceFrom method creates an instance from a file that contains an assembly. The CreateComInstanceFrom method creates an instance of a COM object from a file that contains an assembly.

Explicit Interface Implementations

_Activator.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)

Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers.

_Activator.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)

Retrieves the type information for an object, which can then be used to get the type information for an interface.

_Activator.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32)

Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1).

_Activator.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr)

Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object.
