AsReference<TGrainInterface>(IAddressable)	Returns a typed reference to the provided grain.

AsReference(IAddressable, Type)

Returns a typed reference to the provided grain.

public static object AsReference (this Orleans.Runtime.IAddressable grain, Type interfaceType);

AsReference<TGrainInterface>(IAddressable)

Returns a typed reference to the provided grain.

public static TGrainInterface AsReference<TGrainInterface> (this Orleans.Runtime.IAddressable grain);

static member AsReference : Orleans.Runtime.IAddressable -> 'GrainInterface

<Extension()>
Public Function AsReference(Of TGrainInterface) (grain As IAddressable) As TGrainInterface

Type Parameters

TGrainInterface

The type of the grain interface.

Parameters

grain

IAddressable

The grain to convert.

Returns

TGrainInterface

A strongly typed reference to the provided grain which implements TGrainInterface.
