   IDiaSymbol *pRetVal
};

Parameters

Parameter

Description

pRetVal

[out] Returns an IDiaSymbol object that specifies the type of base table.

Return Value

If successful, returns S_OK; otherwise, returns S_FALSE or an error code.

Note

A return value of S_FALSE means the property is not available for the symbol.

Remarks

A virtual base table pointer (vbtptr) is a hidden pointer in a Visual C++ vtable that handles inheritance from virtual base classes. A vbtptr can have different sizes depending on the inherited classes.

This method returns an IDiaSymbol object that can be used to determine the size of the vbtptr.
