Problem
this code does not work
Type t = typeof(ESRI.ArcGIS.Framework.AppRefClass); System.Object obj = Activator.CreateInstance(t);
but yet this code
Type t = Type.GetTypeFromCLSID(typeof(ESRI.ArcGIS.Framework.AppRefClass).GUID); System.Object obj = Activator.CreateInstance(t);
Reason
In the first variant the runtime tries to cast to AppRefClass . This is not possible.
And in the second one, the runtime does not knows anything about AppRefClass. So it leave it as IUnknown.
