Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the GetTypeArray method to list the types of the elements of an array.


Dim myObject(2) As Object
myObject(0) = 66
myObject(1) = "puri"
myObject(2) = 33.33
' Get the array of 'Type' class objects.
Dim myTypeArray As Type() = Type.GetTypeArray(myObject)
Console.WriteLine("Full names of the 'Type' objects in the array are:")
Dim h As Integer
For h = 0 To myTypeArray.Length - 1
   Console.WriteLine(myTypeArray(h).FullName)
Next h


Object[] myObject = new Object[3];
myObject[0] = 66;
myObject[1] = "puri";
myObject[2] = 33.33;
// Get the array of 'Type' class objects.
Type[] myTypeArray = Type.GetTypeArray(myObject);
Console.WriteLine("Full names of the 'Type' objects in the array are:");
for(int h = 0; h < myTypeArray.Length ; h++)
{
    Console.WriteLine(myTypeArray[h].FullName);
}


array<Object^>^myObject = gcnew array<Object^>(3);
myObject[ 0 ] = 66;
myObject[ 1 ] = "puri";
myObject[ 2 ] = 33.33;

// Get the array of 'Type' class objects.
array<Type^>^myTypeArray = Type::GetTypeArray( myObject );
Console::WriteLine( "Full names of the 'Type' objects in the array are:" );
for ( int h = 0; h < myTypeArray->Length; h++ )
{
   Console::WriteLine( myTypeArray[ h ]->FullName );

}
