Returns the type of an array whose element type is the generic type parameter.

Overloads

MakeArrayType(Int32)	Returns the type of an array whose element type is the generic type parameter, with the specified number of dimensions.
MakeArrayType()	Returns the type of a one-dimensional array whose element type is the generic type parameter.

MakeArrayType(Int32)

Source:: GenericTypeParameterBuilder.cs

Returns the type of an array whose element type is the generic type parameter, with the specified number of dimensions.

public:
 override Type ^ MakeArrayType(int rank);

public override Type MakeArrayType (int rank);

override this.MakeArrayType : int -> Type

Public Overrides Function MakeArrayType (rank As Integer) As Type

Parameters

rank: Int32

The number of dimensions for the array.

Returns

Type

A Type object that represents the type of an array whose element type is the generic type parameter, with the specified number of dimensions.

Exceptions

IndexOutOfRangeException

rank is not a valid number of dimensions. For example, its value is less than 1.

Examples

The following code example creates a dynamic module, an abstract generic type named Sample with one type parameter, T, and an abstract method named TestMethod. TestMethod takes a ref parameter (ByRef in Visual Basic) of type T, a pointer to type T, and an array of T. This method returns a two-dimensional array of T. The code example saves the dynamic module to disk, so you can examine it using the MSIL Disassembler (Ildasm.exe).

    // Define a dynamic assembly to contain the sample type. The

    // An assembly is made up of executable modules. For a single
    // module assembly, the module name and file name are the
    // same as the assembly name.

    // Define the sample type.
    TypeBuilder^ typeBuilder = moduleBuilder->DefineType("Sample",

    Type^ twoDimArrayType = typeParams[0]->MakeArrayType(2);

    // Create the array of parameter types.
    array<Type^>^ parameterTypes = {byRefType, pointerType, arrayType};
