'type': only a managed type can be forwarded

Type forwarding can only occur on CLR types. See Classes and Structs for more information.

For more information, see Type Forwarding (C++/CLI).

Examples

The following sample creates a component.

// C3461.cpp
// compile with: /clr /LD
public ref class R {};

The following sample generates C3461.

// C3461b.cpp
// compile with: /clr /c
#using "C3461.dll"
class N {};
[assembly:TypeForwardedTo(N::typeid)];   // C3461
[assembly:TypeForwardedTo(R::typeid)];   // OK
