typeid (C++/CLI and C++/CX)

Gets a value that indicates the type of an object.

Note

This topic refers to the C++ Component Extensions version of typeid. For the ISO C++ version of this keyword, see typeid Operator.

All Runtimes

Syntax

T::typeid

Parameters

T
A type name.

Windows Runtime

Syntax

Platform::Type^ type = T::typeid;

Parameters

T
A type name.

Remarks

In C++/CX, typeid returns a Platform::Type that is constructed from runtime type information.

Requirements

Compiler option: /ZW

Common Language Runtime

Syntax

System::Type^ type = T::typeid;

Parameters

type
The name of a type (abstract declarator) for which you want the System::Type object.

Remarks

typeid is used to get the Type for a type at compile time.

typeid is similar to getting the System::Type for a type at run time using GetType or GetType. However, typeid only accepts a type name as a parameter. If you want to use an instance of a type to get its System::Type name, use GetType.

typeid must be able to evaluate a type name (type) at compile time, whereas GetType evaluates the type to return at run time.

typeid can take a native type name or common language runtime alias for the native type name; see .NET Framework Equivalents to C++ Native Types (C++/CLI) for more information.

typeid also works with native types, although it will still return a System::Type. To get a type_info structure, use typeid Operator.

Requirements

Compiler option: /clr

Examples

The following example compares the typeid keyword to the GetType() member.

// keyword__typeid.cpp
// compile with: /clr
using namespace System;

ref struct G {
   int i;
};

int main() {
   G ^ pG = gcnew G;
   Type ^ pType = pG->GetType();
   Type ^ pType2 = G::typeid;

   if (pType == pType2)
      Console::WriteLine("typeid and GetType returned the same System::Type");
   Console::WriteLine(G::typeid);

   typedef float* FloatPtr;
   Console::WriteLine(FloatPtr::typeid);
}
typeid and GetType returned the same System::Type
G

System.Single*

The following sample shows that a variable of type System::Type can be used to get the attributes on a type. It also shows that for some types, you will have to create a typedef to use typeid.

// keyword__typeid_2.cpp
// compile with: /clr
using namespace System;
using namespace System::Security;
using namespace System::Security::Permissions;

typedef int ^ handle_to_int;
typedef int * pointer_to_int;

public ref class MyClass {};

class MyClass2 {};

[attribute(AttributeTargets::All)]
ref class AtClass {
public:
   AtClass(Type ^) {
      Console::WriteLine("in AtClass Type ^ constructor");
   }
};

[attribute(AttributeTargets::All)]
ref class AtClass2 {
public:
   AtClass2() {
      Console::WriteLine("in AtClass2 constructor");
   }
};

// Apply the AtClass and AtClass2 attributes to class B
[AtClass(MyClass::typeid), AtClass2]
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets::All)]
ref class B : Attribute {};

int main() {
   Type ^ MyType = B::typeid;

   Console::WriteLine(MyType->IsClass);

   array<Object^>^ MyArray = MyType -> GetCustomAttributes(true);
   for (int i = 0 ; i < MyArray->Length ; i++ )
      Console::WriteLine(MyArray[i]);

   if (int::typeid != pointer_to_int::typeid)
      Console::WriteLine("int::typeid != pointer_to_int::typeid, as expected");

   if (int::typeid == handle_to_int::typeid)
      Console::WriteLine("int::typeid == handle_to_int::typeid, as expected");
}
True

in AtClass2 constructor

in AtClass Type ^ constructor

AtClass2

System.AttributeUsageAttribute

AtClass

int::typeid != pointer_to_int::typeid, as expected

int::typeid == handle_to_int::typeid, as expected
