ICorDebugValue::GetType Method

Gets the primitive type of this "ICorDebugValue" object.

Syntax

HRESULT GetType (
    [out] CorElementType   *pType
);

Parameters

pType [out] A pointer to a value of the "CorElementType" enumeration that indicates the value's type.

Remarks

If the object is a complex runtime type, that type may be examined through the appropriate subclasses of the ICorDebugValue interface. For example, "ICorDebugObjectValue", which inherits from ICorDebugValue, represents a complex type.

The GetType and ICorDebugObjectValue::GetClass methods each return information about the type of a value. They are both superseded by the generics-aware ICorDebugValue2::GetExactType method.

Requirements

Platforms: See .NET supported operating systems.

Header: CorDebug.idl, CorDebug.h

Library: CorGuids.lib

.NET versions: Available since .NET Framework 1.0
