OpCodes.Ldtoken Field
Converts a metadata token to its runtime representation, pushing it onto the evaluation stack.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

ldtoken token |
Converts a metadata token to its runtime representation. |
The stack transitional behavior, in sequential order, is:
-
The passed token is converted to a RuntimeHandle and pushed onto the stack.
The ldtoken instruction pushes a RuntimeHandle for the specified metadata token. A RuntimeHandle can be a fieldref/fielddef, a methodref/methoddef, or a typeref/typedef.
The value pushed on the stack can be used in calls to Reflection methods in the system class library.
For information on runtime handles, see the following classes: RuntimeFieldHandle, RuntimeTypeHandle, and RuntimeMethodHandle.
The following Emit method overloads can use the ldtoken opcode:
-
ILGenerator.Emit(OpCode, MethodInfo)
-
ILGenerator.Emit(OpCode, FieldInfo)
-
ILGenerator.Emit(OpCode, Type)
