winrt::unbox_value function template (C++/WinRT)

Note

You can unbox not only scalar values, but also most kinds of arrays (with the exception of arrays of enumerations) by using the winrt::unbox_value function.

A function template that unwraps (or unboxes) a scalar or array value from inside a reference class object so that it can be processed in a function that expects IInspectable. For more details, and code examples, see Boxing and unboxing values to IInspectable with C++/WinRT.
