Parameters

name
String

The string containing the name of the interface to get. For generic interfaces, this is the mangled name.

Returns

Type

Examples

The following code example uses the GetInterface(String) method to search the Hashtable class for the IDeserializationCallback interface, and lists the methods of the interface.

The code example also demonstrates the GetInterface(String, Boolean) method overload and the GetInterfaceMap method.

int main()
{
   Hashtable^ hashtableObj = gcnew Hashtable;
   Type^ objType = hashtableObj->GetType();
   array<MemberInfo^>^arrayMemberInfo;
   array<MethodInfo^>^arrayMethodInfo;
   try
   {
      // Get the methods implemented in 'IDeserializationCallback' interface.
      arrayMethodInfo = objType->GetInterface( "IDeserializationCallback" )->GetMethods();
      Console::WriteLine( "\nMethods of 'IDeserializationCallback' Interface :" );
      for ( int index = 0; index < arrayMethodInfo->Length; index++ )
         Console::WriteLine( arrayMethodInfo[ index ] );
      
      // Get FullName for interface by using Ignore case search.
      Console::WriteLine( "\nMethods of 'IEnumerable' Interface" );
      arrayMethodInfo = objType->GetInterface( "ienumerable", true )->GetMethods();
      for ( int index = 0; index < arrayMethodInfo->Length; index++ )
         Console::WriteLine( arrayMethodInfo[ index ] );
      
      //Get the Interface methods for 'IDictionary*' interface
      InterfaceMapping interfaceMappingObj;
      interfaceMappingObj = objType->GetInterfaceMap( IDictionary::typeid );
      arrayMemberInfo = interfaceMappingObj.InterfaceMethods;
      Console::WriteLine( "\nHashtable class Implements the following IDictionary Interface methods :" );
      for ( int index = 0; index < arrayMemberInfo->Length; index++ )
         Console::WriteLine( arrayMemberInfo[ index ] );
   }
   catch ( Exception^ e )

      Console::WriteLine( "Exception : {0}", e );

      Catch e As Exception
         Console.WriteLine(("Exception : " + e.ToString()))
      End Try
   End Sub
End Class

Remarks

The search for name is case-sensitive.

If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this method returns the Type with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.

If the current Type represents a type parameter in the definition of a generic type or generic method, this method searches the interface constraints and any interfaces inherited from class or interface constraints.

Note

For generic interfaces, the name parameter is the mangled name, ending with a grave accent (`) and the number of type parameters. This is true for both generic interface definitions and constructed generic interfaces. For example, to find IExample<T> (IExample(Of T) in Visual Basic) or IExample<string> (IExample(Of String) in Visual Basic), search for "IExample`1".

Remarks

The ignoreCase parameter applies only to the simple interface name, not to the namespace. The portion of name that specifies the namespace must have the correct case, or the interface will not be found. For example, the string "System.icomparable" finds the IComparable interface, but the string "system.icomparable" does not.

If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this method returns the Type with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.

If the current Type represents a type parameter in the definition of a generic type or generic method, this method searches the interface constraints and any interfaces inherited from class or interface constraints.

Note

For generic interfaces, the name parameter is the mangled name, ending with a grave accent (`) and the number of type parameters. This is true for both generic interface definitions and constructed generic interfaces. For example, to find IExample<T> (IExample(Of T) in Visual Basic) or IExample<string> (IExample(Of String) in Visual Basic), search for "IExample`1".
