Los CreateDelegate métodos crean un delegado de un tipo especificado.

Método CreateDelegate(Type, MethodInfo)

Esta sobrecarga de método es equivalente a llamar a la sobrecarga del CreateDelegate(Type, MethodInfo, Boolean) método y especificar true para throwOnBindFailure.

Ejemplos

Esta sección contiene dos ejemplos de código. En el primer ejemplo se muestran los dos tipos de delegados que se pueden crear con esta sobrecarga de método: abrir sobre un método de instancia y abrir a través de un método estático.

En el segundo ejemplo de código se muestran los tipos de parámetros compatibles y los tipos de valor devuelto.

Ejemplo 1

En el ejemplo de código siguiente se muestran las dos formas en que se puede crear un delegado mediante esta sobrecarga del CreateDelegate método .

Nota:

Hay dos sobrecargas del CreateDelegate método que especifican un MethodInfo pero no un primer argumento; su funcionalidad es la misma, excepto que una le permite especificar si se produce un error al enlazar y la otra siempre produce. En este ejemplo de código se usan ambas sobrecargas.

En el ejemplo se declara una clase C con un método estático y un método M1M2 de instancia , y dos tipos de delegado: D1 toma una instancia de C y una cadena y D2 toma una cadena.

Una segunda clase denominada Example contiene el código que crea los delegados.

  • Se crea un delegado de tipo D1, que representa un método de instancia abierta, para el método M1de instancia . Se debe pasar una instancia cuando se invoca el delegado.
  • Se crea un delegado de tipo D2, que representa un método estático abierto, para el método M2estático .

Ejemplo 2

En el ejemplo de código siguiente se muestra la compatibilidad de tipos de parámetros y tipos devueltos.

En el ejemplo de código se define una clase base denominada Base y una clase denominada Derived que deriva de Base. La clase derivada tiene un static método (Shared en Visual Basic) denominado MyMethod con un parámetro de tipo Base y un tipo de valor devuelto de Derived. El ejemplo de código también define un delegado denominado Example que tiene un parámetro de tipo Derived y un tipo de valor devuelto de Base.

En el ejemplo de código se muestra que el delegado denominado Example se puede usar para representar el método MyMethod. El método se puede enlazar al delegado porque:

  • El tipo de parámetro del delegado (Derived) es más restrictivo que el tipo de parámetro (MyMethodBase), por lo que siempre es seguro pasar el argumento del delegado a MyMethod.
  • El tipo de valor devuelto de MyMethod (Derived) es más restrictivo que el tipo de parámetro del delegado (Base), por lo que siempre es seguro convertir el tipo de valor devuelto del método al tipo de valor devuelto del delegado.

El ejemplo de código no genera ninguna salida.

Métodos CreateDelegate(Type, Object, MethodInfo) y CreateDelegate(Type, Object, MethodInfo, Boolean)

La funcionalidad de estas dos sobrecargas es la misma, excepto que una permite especificar si se produce un error al enlazar y la otra siempre se produce.

El tipo delegado y el método deben tener tipos de valor devuelto compatibles. Es decir, el tipo de valor devuelto de method debe ser asignable al tipo de valor devuelto de type.

firstArgument, el segundo parámetro para estas sobrecargas, es el primer argumento del método que representa el delegado. Si firstArgument se proporciona, se pasa a method cada vez que se invoca el delegado; firstArgument se dice que está enlazado al delegado y se dice que el delegado se cierra sobre su primer argumento. Si method es static (Shared en Visual Basic), la lista de argumentos proporcionada al invocar el delegado incluye todos los parámetros excepto el primero; si method es un método de instancia, se firstArgument pasa al parámetro de instancia oculta (representado por this en C#, o por Me en Visual Basic).

Si firstArgument se proporciona, el primer parámetro de debe ser un tipo de method referencia y firstArgument debe ser compatible con ese tipo.

Importante

Si method es static (Shared en Visual Basic) y su primer parámetro es de tipo Object o ValueType, puede firstArgument ser un tipo de valor. En este caso firstArgument , se conversión boxeada automáticamente. La conversión boxing automática no se produce para ningún otro argumento, como lo haría en una llamada de función de C# o Visual Basic.

Si firstArgument es una referencia nula y method es un método de instancia, el resultado depende de las firmas del tipo type delegado y de method:

  • Si la firma de type incluye explícitamente el primer parámetro oculto de method, se dice que el delegado representa un método de instancia abierta. Cuando se invoca al delegado, el primer argumento de la lista de argumentos se pasa al parámetro de instancia oculta de method.
  • Si las firmas de y type coinciden (es decir, todos los tipos de method parámetros son compatibles), se dice que el delegado se cierra sobre una referencia nula. Invocar al delegado es como llamar a un método de instancia en una instancia nula, lo que no es algo especialmente útil para hacer.

Si firstArgument es una referencia nula y method es estática, el resultado depende de las firmas del tipo type delegado y de method:

  • Si la firma de method y type coincide (es decir, todos los tipos de parámetros son compatibles), se dice que el delegado representa un método estático abierto. Este es el caso más común para los métodos estáticos. En este caso, puede obtener un rendimiento ligeramente mejor mediante la sobrecarga del CreateDelegate(Type, MethodInfo) método .
  • Si la firma de type comienza con el segundo parámetro de method y el resto de los tipos de parámetro son compatibles, se dice que el delegado se cierra sobre una referencia nula. Cuando se invoca al delegado, se pasa una referencia nula al primer parámetro de method.

Ejemplo

En el ejemplo de código siguiente se muestran todos los métodos que puede representar un único tipo de delegado: cerrado sobre un método de instancia, abierto a través de un método de instancia, abierto sobre un método estático y cerrado sobre un método estático.

En el ejemplo de código se definen dos clases, C y F, y un tipo D de delegado con un argumento de tipo C. Las clases tienen métodos estáticos M1e de instancia coincidentes, M3, y M4, y clase C también tiene un método M2 de instancia que no tiene argumentos.

Una tercera clase denominada Example contiene el código que crea los delegados.

  • Los delegados se crean para el método M1 de instancia de tipo C y tipo F; cada uno se cierra sobre una instancia del tipo correspondiente. El método M1 de tipo C muestra las ID propiedades de la instancia enlazada y del argumento .
  • Se crea un delegado para el método M2 de tipo C. Se trata de un delegado de instancia abierta, en el que el argumento del delegado representa el primer argumento oculto en el método de instancia. El método no tiene ningún otro argumento. Se llama como si fuera un método estático.
  • Los delegados se crean para el método M3 estático de tipo C y tipo F; son delegados estáticos abiertos.
  • Por último, los delegados se crean para el método M4 estático de tipo C y tipo F; cada método tiene el tipo declarativo como primer argumento y se proporciona una instancia del tipo, por lo que los delegados se cierran sobre sus primeros argumentos. El método M4 de tipo C muestra las ID propiedades de la instancia enlazada y del argumento .

Tipos de parámetros compatibles y tipo de valor devuelto

Los tipos de parámetro y el tipo de valor devuelto de un delegado creado con esta sobrecarga de método deben ser compatibles con los tipos de parámetro y el tipo de valor devuelto del método que representa el delegado; los tipos no tienen que coincidir exactamente.

Un parámetro de un delegado es compatible con el parámetro correspondiente de un método si el tipo del parámetro del delegado es más restrictivo que el del método, porque así se garantiza que el argumento que se pase al delegado también se podrá pasar de forma segura al método.

De forma similar, el tipo de valor devuelto de un delegado es compatible con el tipo de valor devuelto de un método si el del método es más restrictivo que el del delegado, porque así se garantiza que el tipo de valor devuelto por el método se puede convertir con seguridad al tipo de valor devuelto del delegado.

Por ejemplo, un delegado con un parámetro de tipo Hashtable y un tipo de valor devuelto de Object puede representar un método con un parámetro de tipo Object y un valor devuelto de tipo Hashtable.

Determinar los métodos que un delegado puede representar

Otra manera útil de pensar en la flexibilidad proporcionada por la CreateDelegate(Type, Object, MethodInfo) sobrecarga es que cualquier delegado determinado puede representar cuatro combinaciones diferentes de firma de método y tipo de método (estática frente a instancia). Considere un tipo D de delegado con un argumento de tipo C. A continuación se describen los métodos D que pueden representar, ignorando el tipo de valor devuelto, ya que debe coincidir en todos los casos:

  • D puede representar cualquier método de instancia que tenga exactamente un argumento de tipo C, independientemente del tipo al que pertenezca el método de instancia. Cuando CreateDelegate se llama a , firstArgument es una instancia del tipo method al que pertenece y se dice que el delegado resultante se cierra sobre esa instancia. (Trivialmente, D también se puede cerrar en una referencia nula si firstArgument es una referencia nula).

  • D puede representar un método de instancia de C que no tiene argumentos. Cuando CreateDelegate se llama a , firstArgument es una referencia nula. El delegado resultante representa un método de instancia abierta y se debe proporcionar una instancia de C cada vez que se invoca.

  • D puede representar un método estático que toma un argumento de tipo Cy ese método puede pertenecer a cualquier tipo. Cuando CreateDelegate se llama a , firstArgument es una referencia nula. El delegado resultante representa un método estático abierto y se debe proporcionar una instancia de C cada vez que se invoca.

  • D puede representar un método estático que pertenece al tipo F y tiene dos argumentos, de tipo F y tipo C. Cuando CreateDelegate se llama a , firstArgument es una instancia de F. El delegado resultante representa un método estático que se cierra sobre esa instancia de F. Tenga en cuenta que en el caso F de que y C sean del mismo tipo, el método estático tiene dos argumentos de ese tipo. (En este caso, D se cierra sobre una referencia nula si firstArgument es una referencia nula).
