'type': only a managed type can be forwarded

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

For more information, see Type Forwarding.

Example

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
