_XDocument3.Host Property

Definition

Gets a System.Object that code running in a hosted instance of InfoPath can use to access the object model of the host application.

public:
 property System::Object ^ Host { System::Object ^ get(); };
public object Host { get; }
member this.Host : obj
Public ReadOnly Property Host As Object

Property Value

A System.Object that represents the method defined in the host application for accessing that application's object model.

Remarks

This property is only used for scenarios where InfoPath is hosted as a control in another application and code running in InfoPath needs to access the object model of the host application. By default, the value of this property is set to a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

For a brief overview of hosting InfoPath in another application, see "The InfoPath Editor Hosted as a Control" in What's New for InfoPath Developers. For detailed information about hosting InfoPath as a control in another application, see the article titled "Hosting the InfoPath Form Editing Environment in a Custom Web Form" on the InfoPath Developer Portal

Because the Host property is new to Microsoft InfoPath, you must declare and cast to the _XDocument3 type to access this method. For more information, see How to: Use Object Model Members That Are Not Compatible with InfoPath 2003.

This member can be accessed only by forms running in the same domain as the currently open form, or by forms that have been granted cross-domain permissions.
