如何:定义和执行动态方法
以下过程介绍如何定义和执行简单的动态方法和绑定到类实例的动态方法。 有关动态方法的详细信息,请参阅 DynamicMethod 类。
声明用于执行方法的委托类型。 考虑使用泛型委托,将需要声明的委托类型数降到最低。 以下代码声明两种可用于
SquareIt
方法的委托类型,其中一个是泛型。private: delegate long long SquareItInvoker(int input); generic<typename TReturn, typename TParameter0> delegate TReturn OneParameter(TParameter0 p0);
private delegate long SquareItInvoker(int input); private delegate TReturn OneParameter<TReturn, TParameter0> (TParameter0 p0);
Private Delegate Function _ SquareItInvoker(ByVal input As Integer) As Long Private Delegate Function _ OneParameter(Of TReturn, TParameter0) _ (ByVal p0 As TParameter0) As TReturn
创建用于为动态方法指定参数类型的数组。 在此示例中,唯一的参数为
int
(在 Visual Basic 中为Integer
),所以数组只有一个元素。array<Type^>^ methodArgs = { int::typeid };
Type[] methodArgs = {typeof(int)};
Dim methodArgs As Type() = {GetType(Integer)}
创建 DynamicMethod。 在此示例中,该方法命名为
SquareIt
。备注
不需要为动态方法命名,并且不能通过名称调用它们。 多个动态方法可以具有相同的名称。 但是,名称将在调用堆栈中显示并且可用于调试。
返回值的类型指定为
long
。 该方法与包含Example
类的模块关联,该类包含代码示例。 可以指定任何加载的模块。 动态方法的行为类似于模块级的static
方法(在 Visual Basic 中为Shared
)。DynamicMethod^ squareIt = gcnew DynamicMethod( "SquareIt", long long::typeid, methodArgs, Example::typeid->Module);
DynamicMethod squareIt = new DynamicMethod( "SquareIt", typeof(long), methodArgs, typeof(Example).Module);
Dim squareIt As New DynamicMethod( _ "SquareIt", _ GetType(Long), _ methodArgs, _ GetType(Example).Module)
发出方法主体。 在此示例中,ILGenerator 对象用来发出通用中间语言 (CIL)。 也可以结合使用 DynamicILInfo 对象与非托管代码生成器,发出 DynamicMethod 的方法主体。
此示例中的 CIL 将该参数(一个
int
)加载到堆栈上,将其转换为long
,复制long
,然后将这两个数字相乘。 这会将平方结果保留在堆栈中,方法只需返回即可。ILGenerator^ il = squareIt->GetILGenerator(); il->Emit(OpCodes::Ldarg_0); il->Emit(OpCodes::Conv_I8); il->Emit(OpCodes::Dup); il->Emit(OpCodes::Mul); il->Emit(OpCodes::Ret);
ILGenerator il = squareIt.GetILGenerator(); il.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0); il.Emit(OpCodes.Conv_I8); il.Emit(OpCodes.Dup); il.Emit(OpCodes.Mul); il.Emit(OpCodes.Ret);
Dim il As ILGenerator = squareIt.GetILGenerator() il.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0) il.Emit(OpCodes.Conv_I8) il.Emit(OpCodes.Dup) il.Emit(OpCodes.Mul) il.Emit(OpCodes.Ret)
通过调用 CreateDelegate 方法创建表示动态方法的委托(在步骤 1 中声明)的实例。 创建委托即完成该方法,任何更改方法的进一步尝试(例如,添加更多 CIL)都将被忽略。 以下代码使用泛型委托创建委托并调用它。
OneParameter<long long, int>^ invokeSquareIt = (OneParameter<long long, int>^) squareIt->CreateDelegate(OneParameter<long long, int>::typeid); Console::WriteLine("123456789 squared = {0}", invokeSquareIt(123456789));
OneParameter<long, int> invokeSquareIt = (OneParameter<long, int>) squareIt.CreateDelegate(typeof(OneParameter<long, int>)); Console.WriteLine("123456789 squared = {0}", invokeSquareIt(123456789));
Dim invokeSquareIt As OneParameter(Of Long, Integer) = _ CType( _ squareIt.CreateDelegate( _ GetType(OneParameter(Of Long, Integer))), _ OneParameter(Of Long, Integer) _ ) Console.WriteLine("123456789 squared = {0}", _ invokeSquareIt(123456789))
声明用于执行方法的委托类型。 考虑使用泛型委托,将需要声明的委托类型数降到最低。 以下代码声明一个泛型委托类型,可使用该类型执行任何具有一个参数和一个返回值的方法,如果委托绑定到对象,则该类型也可以执行具有两个参数和一个返回值的方法。
generic<typename TReturn, typename TParameter0> delegate TReturn OneParameter(TParameter0 p0);
private delegate TReturn OneParameter<TReturn, TParameter0> (TParameter0 p0);
Private Delegate Function _ OneParameter(Of TReturn, TParameter0) _ (ByVal p0 As TParameter0) As TReturn
创建用于为动态方法指定参数类型的数组。 如果表示方法的委托要绑定到对象,则第一个参数必须与委托绑定到的类型相匹配。 在此示例中,存在两个参数,分别属于
Example
和int
(在 Visual Basic 中为Integer
)类型。array<Type^>^ methodArgs2 = { Example::typeid, int::typeid };
Type[] methodArgs2 = { typeof(Example), typeof(int) };
Dim methodArgs2 As Type() = _ {GetType(Example), GetType(Integer)}
创建 DynamicMethod。 在此示例中,方法没有名称。 返回值的类型指定为
int
(在 Visual Basic 中为Integer
)。 该方法可以访问Example
类的私有成员和受保护成员。DynamicMethod^ multiplyHidden = gcnew DynamicMethod( "", int::typeid, methodArgs2, Example::typeid);
DynamicMethod multiplyHidden = new DynamicMethod( "", typeof(int), methodArgs2, typeof(Example));
Dim multiplyPrivate As New DynamicMethod( _ "", _ GetType(Integer), _ methodArgs2, _ GetType(Example))
发出方法主体。 在此示例中,ILGenerator 对象用来发出通用中间语言 (CIL)。 也可以结合使用 DynamicILInfo 对象与非托管代码生成器,发出 DynamicMethod 的方法主体。
此示例中的 CIL 加载第一个参数(一个
Example
类的实例),然后使用该参数加载类型int
的专用实例字段的值。 然后加载第二个参数,并将两个数相乘。 如果结果大于int
,将截断该值且丢弃最高有效位。 该方法返回,返回值保留在堆栈中。ILGenerator^ ilMH = multiplyHidden->GetILGenerator(); ilMH->Emit(OpCodes::Ldarg_0); FieldInfo^ testInfo = Example::typeid->GetField("test", BindingFlags::NonPublic | BindingFlags::Instance); ilMH->Emit(OpCodes::Ldfld, testInfo); ilMH->Emit(OpCodes::Ldarg_1); ilMH->Emit(OpCodes::Mul); ilMH->Emit(OpCodes::Ret);
ILGenerator ilMH = multiplyHidden.GetILGenerator(); ilMH.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0); FieldInfo testInfo = typeof(Example).GetField("test", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance); ilMH.Emit(OpCodes.Ldfld, testInfo); ilMH.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_1); ilMH.Emit(OpCodes.Mul); ilMH.Emit(OpCodes.Ret);
Dim ilMP As ILGenerator = multiplyPrivate.GetILGenerator() ilMP.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_0) Dim testInfo As FieldInfo = _ GetType(Example).GetField("test", _ BindingFlags.NonPublic Or BindingFlags.Instance) ilMP.Emit(OpCodes.Ldfld, testInfo) ilMP.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_1) ilMP.Emit(OpCodes.Mul) ilMP.Emit(OpCodes.Ret)
通过调用 CreateDelegate(Type, Object) 方法重载创建表示动态方法的委托(在步骤 1 中声明)的实例。 创建委托即完成该方法,任何更改方法的进一步尝试(例如,添加更多 CIL)都将被忽略。
注意
可以多次调用 CreateDelegate 方法,创建绑定到目标类型的其他实例的委托。
以下代码将该方法绑定到
Example
类的一个新实例,该类的专用测试字段设置为 42。 也就是说,每次调用委托时,都会将Example
的实例传递给该方法的第一个参数。使用委托
OneParameter
的原因是该方法的第一个参数始终会接收Example
的实例。 调用委托时,只需要使用第二个参数。OneParameter<int, int>^ invoke = (OneParameter<int, int>^) multiplyHidden->CreateDelegate( OneParameter<int, int>::typeid, gcnew Example(42) ); Console::WriteLine("3 * test = {0}", invoke(3));
OneParameter<int, int> invoke = (OneParameter<int, int>) multiplyHidden.CreateDelegate( typeof(OneParameter<int, int>), new Example(42) ); Console.WriteLine("3 * test = {0}", invoke(3));
Dim invoke As OneParameter(Of Integer, Integer) = _ CType( _ multiplyPrivate.CreateDelegate( _ GetType(OneParameter(Of Integer, Integer)), _ new Example(42) _ ), _ OneParameter(Of Integer, Integer) _ ) Console.WriteLine("3 * test = {0}", invoke(3))
示例
以下代码示例演示一个简单的动态方法和一个绑定到类实例的动态方法。
简单动态方法具有一个 32 位整数参数,返回该整数的 64 位平方。 使用泛型委托来调用该方法。
第二个动态方法有两个参数,分别属于 Example
和 int
(在 Visual Basic 中为 Integer
)类型。 创建动态方法后,将使用具有一个 int
类型参数的泛型委托将其绑定到 Example
的实例。 该委托没有 Example
类型的参数,因为方法的第一个参数始终接收 Example
的绑定实例。 调用委托时,只提供 int
参数。 此动态方法访问 Example
类的专用字段,并返回专用字段和 int
参数的乘积。
该代码示例定义可用于执行方法的委托。
