Gets the Objective-C handle to the given type.
public static IntPtr GetHandleIntrinsic (string name);
static member GetHandleIntrinsic : string -> nativeint
Parameters
- name
- String
Type for an NSObject-derived class
Returns
IntPtr
nativeint
The Objective-C handle to the object.
Remarks
This method looks up the Objective-C handle for the specified type. This method is special-cased by the AOT compiler to become an inlined, static reference to the type. This is significantly faster that calling GetHandle(String), but it also means that the class must exist in the executable (or in a framework the executable is linked with).
