Type::GetTypeFromCLSID Method (Guid, Boolean)
Gets the type associated with the specified class identifier (CLSID), specifying whether to throw an exception if an error occurs while loading the type.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- clsid

The following example retrieves the type associated with the CLSID from the local host, specifying whether to throw an exception if an error occurs while loading the type.
using namespace System; int main() { try { // Create a GUID. Guid myGuid1 = Guid("1DCD0710-0B41-11D3-A565-00C04F8EF6E3"); // Get the type associated with the CLSID // and specify whether to throw an exception if an error occurs // while loading the type. Type^ myType1 = Type::GetTypeFromCLSID( myGuid1, true ); Console::WriteLine( "The GUID associated with myType1 is {0}.", myType1->GUID ); Console::WriteLine( "The type of the GUID is {0}.", myType1 );
