MethodBase.GetMethodFromHandle Method (RuntimeMethodHandle, RuntimeTypeHandle)
Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.
Gets the constructor or method represented by the specified handle, for the specified generic type.
Namespace: System.Reflection
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
<ComVisibleAttribute(False)> _
Public Shared Function GetMethodFromHandle ( _
handle As RuntimeMethodHandle, _
declaringType As RuntimeTypeHandle _
) As MethodBase
[ComVisibleAttribute(false)]
public static MethodBase GetMethodFromHandle(
RuntimeMethodHandle handle,
RuntimeTypeHandle declaringType
)
Parameters
- handle
Type: System.RuntimeMethodHandle
A handle to the internal metadata representation of a constructor or method.
- declaringType
Type: System.RuntimeTypeHandle
A handle to the generic type that defines the constructor or method.
Return Value
Type: System.Reflection.MethodBase
The method or constructor specified by handle, in the generic type specified by declaringType.
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| MethodAccessException | This member is invoked late-bound through mechanisms such as Type.InvokeMember. |
| ArgumentException | handle is invalid. |
Remarks
Handles are valid only in the application domain in which they were obtained.
A RuntimeMethodHandle structure for a constructor or method of a generic type can represent different MethodBase objects, depending on the types specified for the type parameters of the generic type. For example, if class G<T> (class G(Of T) in Visual Basic, generic <T> ref class G in C++) has a method that returns type T, the MethodBase object for that method in a constructed class such as G<int> (G(Of Integer) in Visual Basic) is different from the MethodBase object for that method in the generic type definition, the MethodBase object for G<string>, and so on.
