public System.Reflection.Metadata.TypeDefinitionHandle AddTypeDefinition (System.Reflection.TypeAttributes attributes, System.Reflection.Metadata.StringHandle namespace, System.Reflection.Metadata.StringHandle name, System.Reflection.Metadata.EntityHandle baseType, System.Reflection.Metadata.FieldDefinitionHandle fieldList, System.Reflection.Metadata.MethodDefinitionHandle methodList);

Public Function AddTypeDefinition (attributes As TypeAttributes, namespace As StringHandle, name As StringHandle, baseType As EntityHandle, fieldList As FieldDefinitionHandle, methodList As MethodDefinitionHandle) As TypeDefinitionHandle
Parameters
- attributes
- TypeAttributes
The type attributes.
- namespace
- StringHandle
The type namespace.
- name
- StringHandle
The type name.
- baseType
- EntityHandle
The base type entity handle, which can be one of the following: TypeDefinitionHandle, TypeReferenceHandle, TypeSpecificationHandle, or null
.
- fieldList
- FieldDefinitionHandle
If the type declares fields, set this to the handle of the first one. Otherwise, set this to the handle of the first field declared by the next type definition. If no type defines any fields in the module, System.Reflection.Metadata.Ecma335.MetadataTokens.FieldDefinitionHandle(1)
.
- methodList
- MethodDefinitionHandle
If the type declares methods, the handle of the first one. Otherwise, the handle of the first method declared by the next type definition. If no type defines any methods in the module, System.Reflection.Metadata.Ecma335.MetadataTokens.MethodDefinitionHandle(1)
.
Returns
A handle to the added type definition.
Exceptions
baseType
doesn't have the expected handle kind.
