Definition

Gets the type symbol for a type specification.

public:
 TType GetTypeFromSpecification(System::Reflection::Metadata::MetadataReader ^ reader, TGenericContext genericContext, System::Reflection::Metadata::TypeSpecificationHandle handle, System::Byte rawTypeKind);
public TType GetTypeFromSpecification (System.Reflection.Metadata.MetadataReader reader, TGenericContext genericContext, System.Reflection.Metadata.TypeSpecificationHandle handle, byte rawTypeKind);
abstract member GetTypeFromSpecification : System.Reflection.Metadata.MetadataReader * 'GenericContext * System.Reflection.Metadata.TypeSpecificationHandle * byte -> 'ype
Public Function GetTypeFromSpecification (reader As MetadataReader, genericContext As TGenericContext, handle As TypeSpecificationHandle, rawTypeKind As Byte) As TType

Parameters

reader
MetadataReader

The metadata reader that was passed to the signature decoder. It may be null.

genericContext
TGenericContext

The context that was passed to the signature decoder.

handle
TypeSpecificationHandle

The type specification handle.

rawTypeKind
Byte

The kind of the type, as specified in the signature. To interpret this value, use ResolveSignatureTypeKind(MetadataReader, EntityHandle, Byte).

Returns

TType

The type symbol for the type specification.

Remarks

When the signature comes from a WinMD file, additional processing is needed to determine whether the target type is a value type or a reference type.
