Assembly.GetType Method

Definition

Gets the Type object that represents the specified type.

Overloads

GetType(String, Boolean)

Gets the Type object with the specified name in the assembly instance and optionally throws an exception if the type is not found.

GetType(String, Boolean, Boolean)

Gets the Type object with the specified name in the assembly instance, with the options of ignoring the case, and of throwing an exception if the type is not found.

GetType()
GetType(String)

Gets the Type object with the specified name in the assembly instance.

Gets the Type object with the specified name in the assembly instance and optionally throws an exception if the type is not found.

public:
 virtual Type ^ GetType(System::String ^ name, bool throwOnError);
public virtual Type? GetType (string name, bool throwOnError);
public virtual Type GetType (string name, bool throwOnError);
override this.GetType : string * bool -> Type
Public Overridable Function GetType (name As String, throwOnError As Boolean) As Type

Parameters

name
String

The full name of the type.

throwOnError
Boolean

true to throw an exception if the type is not found; false to return null.

Returns

An object that represents the specified class.

Implements

Exceptions

name is invalid.

-or-

The length of name exceeds 1024 characters.

name is null.

throwOnError is true, and the type cannot be found.

name requires a dependent assembly that could not be found.

name requires a dependent assembly that was found but could not be loaded.

-or-

The current assembly was loaded into the reflection-only context, and name requires a dependent assembly that was not preloaded.

typeName requires a dependent assembly, but the file is not a valid assembly for the currently loaded runtime.

Remarks

This method only searches the current assembly instance. The name parameter includes the namespace but not the assembly. To search other assemblies for a type, use the Type.GetType(String) method overload, which can optionally include an assembly display name as part of the type name.

Note

If the type has been forwarded to another assembly, it is still returned by this method. For information on type forwarding, see Type Forwarding in the Common Language Runtime.

The throwOnError parameter only affects what happens when the type is not found. It does not affect any other exceptions that might be thrown. In particular, if the type is found but cannot be loaded, TypeLoadException can be thrown even if throwOnError is false.

Parameters

typeName requires a dependent assembly, but the file is not a valid assembly for the currently loaded runtime.

Examples

The following example defines an abstract MeansOfTransportation class in the Transportation namespace. It calls the GetType(String) method to retrieve its Type object, calls the Type.GetProperties method to get an array of PropertyInfo objects that represent the type's properties, and then displays information on the type's abstract properties. Note that the call to the GetType(String) method uses the type's fully qualified name (that is, its namespace along with its type name).

using System;
using System.Reflection;

public class Example
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        Assembly assem = typeof(Example).Assembly;
        Type t = assem.GetType("Transportation.MeansOfTransportation");
        if (t != null)
        {
            Console.WriteLine($"Virtual properties in type {t.FullName}:");
            PropertyInfo[] props = t.GetProperties();
            int nVirtual = 0;
            for (int ctr = 0; ctr < props.Length; ctr++)
            {
                if (props[ctr].GetMethod.IsVirtual)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine($"   {props[ctr].Name} (type {props[ctr].PropertyType.FullName})");
                    nVirtual++;
                }
            }

            if (nVirtual == 0)
                Console.WriteLine("   No virtual properties");
