Overloads

GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType(Object)	Returns a custom type descriptor for the given type or object.
GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType(Type)	Returns a custom type descriptor for the given type or object.
GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType(Type, Object)	Returns a custom type descriptor for the given type or object.

GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType(Object)

Returns a custom type descriptor for the given type or object.

public:
 System::ComponentModel::ICustomTypeDescriptor ^ GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType(System::Object ^ instance);

public System.ComponentModel.ICustomTypeDescriptor? GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType (object instance);

member this.GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType : obj -> System.ComponentModel.ICustomTypeDescriptor

Public Function GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType (instance As Object) As ICustomTypeDescriptor

Parameters

instance

Object

Returns

ICustomTypeDescriptor

Remarks

The objectType parameter is always valid, but the instance parameter may be null if no instance was passed to TypeDescriptor. The method should return a custom type descriptor for the object. If the method is not interested in providing type information for the object it should return base.

GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType(Type)

Returns a custom type descriptor for the given type or object.

public:
 System::ComponentModel::ICustomTypeDescriptor ^ GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType(Type ^ objectType);

public System.ComponentModel.ICustomTypeDescriptor? GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType (Type objectType);

member this.GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType : Type -> System.ComponentModel.ICustomTypeDescriptor

Public Function GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType (objectType As Type) As ICustomTypeDescriptor

Parameters

objectType

Type

Returns

ICustomTypeDescriptor

Remarks

The objectType parameter is always valid, but the instance parameter may be null if no instance was passed to TypeDescriptor. The method should return a custom type descriptor for the object. If the method is not interested in providing type information for the object it should return base.

GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType(Type, Object)

Returns a custom type descriptor for the given type or object.

public:
 virtual System::ComponentModel::ICustomTypeDescriptor ^ GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType(Type ^ objectType, System::Object ^ instance);

public virtual System.ComponentModel.ICustomTypeDescriptor? GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType (Type objectType, object? instance);

abstract member GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType : Type * obj -> System.ComponentModel.ICustomTypeDescriptor
override this.GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType : Type * obj -> System.ComponentModel.ICustomTypeDescriptor

Public Overridable Function GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType (objectType As Type, instance As Object) As ICustomTypeDescriptor

Parameters

objectType

Type

instance

Object

Returns

ICustomTypeDescriptor

Remarks

The objectType parameter is always valid, but the instance parameter may be null if no instance was passed to TypeDescriptor. The method should return a custom type descriptor for the object. If the method is not interested in providing type information for the object it should return base.

This method is prototyped as virtual, and by default returns a custom type descriptor that returns empty collections for all values if no parent provider was passed. If a parent provider was passed, this method will invoke the parent provider's GetTypeDescriptorFromRegisteredType method.
