CoDecodeProxy function (combaseapi.h)

Locates the implementation of a Component Object Model (COM) interface in a server process given an interface to a proxied object.

Syntax

HRESULT CoDecodeProxy(
  [in]  DWORD              dwClientPid,
  [in]  UINT64             ui64ProxyAddress,
  [out] PServerInformation pServerInformation
);

Parameters

[in] dwClientPid

The process ID of the process that contains the proxy.

[in] ui64ProxyAddress

The address of an interface on a proxy to the object. ui64ProxyAddress is considered a 64-bit value type, rather than a pointer to a 64-bit value, and isn't a pointer to an object in the debugger process. Instead, this address is passed to the ReadProcessMemory function.

[out] pServerInformation

A structure that contains the process ID, the thread ID, and the address of the server.

Return value

This function can return one of these values.

Remarks

The CoDecodeProxy function is a COM API that enables native debuggers to locate the implementation of a COM interface in a server process given an interface on a proxy to the object.

Also, the CoDecodeProxy function enables the debugger to monitor cross-apartment function calls and fail such calls when appropriate.

You can call the CoDecodeProxy function from a 32-bit or 64-bit process. ui64ProxyAddress can be a 32-bit or 64-bit address. The CoDecodeProxy function returns a 32-bit or 64-bit address in the pServerInformation field. If it returns a 64-bit address, you should pass the address to the ReadProcessMemory function only from a 64-bit process.
