Remoting - Is an object remote?

Question

How can I determine whether an object is local or remote (using C# remoting)? Both checking in local code if the object is remote or in the object if the code is executed from remote would be okay.

Answer 1

    if(System.Runtime.Remoting.RemotingServices.IsTransparentProxy(myObject))
      Console.WriteLine("Yay - my object is a remoted object.");
    else
      Console.WriteLine("Boo - my object is not a remoted object.");

Answer 2

I suppose you could look at the proxy and see if it derived from TransparentProxy

var myObj = ....;
if(myObj is TransparentProxy) 
  Console.WriteLine("I have a remote object");
else 
  Console.WriteLine("I don't think I have a remote object");
