Is it at all possible to get at the object that is implementing some
interface (i.e. IUnknown)?


i know Delphi must be able to walk it's internal VMT structures and return
the original TObject, but i don't see any internal function for doing it.

Azret posted this code here a while back:

// GetImplObject(Intf, IMyInterface, TMyObject);

function GetImplObject(const Instance: IUnknown; const IID: TGUID;
ImplClass: TClass): TObject;
var
InterfaceEntry: PInterfaceEntry;
begin
Result := nil;
if (ImplClass = nil) or (Instance = nil) then Exit;

InterfaceEntry := ImplClass.GetInterfaceEntry(IID);
if InterfaceEntry <> nil then
begin
if InterfaceEntry^.IOffset > 0 then
Result := TObject(Integer(Instance) -
InterfaceEntry^.IOffset);
end;
end
