Marshal.GetTypeForITypeInfo Method
Converts an unmanaged ITypeInfo object into a managed System.Type object.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
'Declaration Public Shared Function GetTypeForITypeInfo ( _ piTypeInfo As IntPtr _ ) As Type
Parameters
- piTypeInfo
- Type: System.IntPtr
The ITypeInfo interface to marshal.
GetTypeForITypeInfo returns a System.Type instance that is based on the original type. You can apply the System.Runtime.InteropServices.MarshalAsAttribute to replace standard interop marshaling behavior with this custom marshaler. The Tlbimp.exe (Type Library Importer) tool uses the custom marshaler to translate ITypeInfo parameters to System.Type parameters. However, if you obtain an ITypeInfo interface by some means other than Tlbimp.exe, you can use GetTypeForITypeInfo to manually perform the same translation.
