Definition

Namespace:

System.Runtime.InteropServices.WindowsRuntime

Assembly:

mscorlib.dll

Provides an event for resolving reflection-only type requests for types that are provided by Windows Metadata files, and methods for performing the resolution.

C#

public static class WindowsRuntimeMetadata

Inheritance

Object

WindowsRuntimeMetadata

Remarks

Unlike the .NET Framework, assembly identity isn't important for Windows Runtime types. In the Windows Runtime, Windows Metadata files (.WinMD files) contain only metadata, not code. Types can move from one Windows Metadata file to another in a service pack release, so it's important to be able to locate the Windows Metadata files that are associated with a namespace.

Бележка

Sub-namespaces don't imply containment. That is, namespace A.B isn't contained in namespace A.

Methods

ResolveNamespace(String, IEnumerable<String>)	Locates the Windows Metadata files for the specified namespace, given the specified locations to search.
ResolveNamespace(String, String, IEnumerable<String>)	Locates the Windows Metadata files for the specified namespace, given the specified locations to search.

Events

DesignerNamespaceResolve	Occurs when the resolution of a Windows Metadata file fails in the design environment.
ReflectionOnlyNamespaceResolve	Occurs when the resolution of a Windows Metadata file fails in the reflection-only context.
