COR_HEAPOBJECT Structure
Provides information about an object on the managed heap.
Syntax
typedef struct _COR_HEAPOBJECT {
CORDB_ADDRESS address;
ULONG64 size;
COR_TYPEID type;
} COR_HEAPOBJECT;
Members
| Member | Description |
|---|---|
address |
The address of the object in memory. |
size |
The total size of the object, in bytes. |
type |
A COR_TYPEID token that represents the type of the object. |
Remarks
COR_HEAPOBJECT instances can be retrieved by enumerating an ICorDebugHeapEnum interface object that is populated by calling the ICorDebugProcess5::EnumerateHeap method.
A COR_HEAPOBJECT instance provides information either about a live object on the managed heap, or about an object that is not rooted by any object but has not yet been collected by the garbage collector.
For better performance, the COR_HEAPOBJECT.address field is a CORDB_ADDRESS value rather than the ICorDebugValue interface value used in much of the debugging API. To obtain an ICorDebugValue object for a given object address, you can pass the CORDB_ADDRESS value to the ICorDebugProcess5::GetObject method.
For better performance, the COR_HEAPOBJECT.type field is a COR_TYPEID value rather than the ICorDebugType interface value used in much of the debugging API. To obtain an ICorDebugType object for a given type ID, you can pass the COR_TYPEID value to the ICorDebugProcess5::GetTypeForTypeID method.
The COR_HEAPOBJECT structure includes a reference-counted COM interface. If you retrieve a COR_HEAPOBJECT instance from the enumerator by calling the ICorDebugHeapEnum::Next method, you must subsequently release the reference.
