ContextInfo interface (comsvcs.h)

Retrieves transaction, activity, and context information on the current context object. Using the methods of this interface, you can retrieve relevant information contained within an object context.

ContextInfo and IObjectContextInfo provide the same functionality, but unlike IObjectContextInfo, ContextInfo is compatible with Automation.

In COM+ 1.5, released with Windows XP, the ContextInfo interface is superseded by the ContextInfo2 interface.
