ObjectDescriptor Constructor(ObjectDescriptor)

The object descriptor object to be copied from.

Because the ObjectDescriptor has an implicit conversion from System.Guid and System.String, in languages that support implicit conversion operators (such as C# or VB.NET), you can simply use a GUID (representing the CLSID of the object) or a string (representing the so-called object descriptor string, such as a ProgID of the server) in place of this parameter, and the corresponding object descriptor will be constructed automatically. When the implicit conversion operators are not supported (such as with Python.NET), you can use the FromGuid or FromString static method instead.

The value of this parameter cannot be null (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Initializes a new copy of the ObjectDescriptor object.
