Remarks

AdminProxy has both static (shared in Visual Basic) and non-static methods for getting a IUpdateServer. If you use any of the static GetUpdateServer methods to retrieve an interface to the WSUS server, you will not have to instantiate an instance of AdminProxy. However, if you use the non-static GetUpdateServerInstance method, then you must use the new keyword to create an instance of AdminProxy.

Important

This class is not thread safe.

Examples

The following is an example in Visual Basic of the use of one of the static (shared in Visual Basic) methods to get an IUpdateServer representing a local WSUS server.

Dim iUpdateServer as IUpdateServer
iUpdateServer = AdminProxy.GetUpdateServer

The following is an example in Visual Basic of the use of the non-static method to get a IUpdateServer representing a local WSUS server.

Dim iUpdateServer as IUpdateServer
Dim proxy as New AdminProxy
iUpdateServer = AdminProxy.GetUpdateServer
