Type::GUID Property
Visual Studio 2010
Gets the GUID associated with the Type.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
A GUID is associated with a type using the GuidAttribute attribute.
The following example creates the class MyClass1 with a public method, creates a Type object corresponding to MyClass1, and gets the Guid structure using the GUID property of the Type class.
using namespace System; ref class MyGetTypeFromCLSID { public: ref class MyClass1 { public: void MyMethod1(){} }; }; int main() { // Get the type corresponding to the class MyClass. Type^ myType = MyGetTypeFromCLSID::MyClass1::typeid; // Get the Object* of the Guid. Guid myGuid = (Guid)myType->GUID; Console::WriteLine( "The name of the class is {0}", myType ); Console::WriteLine( "The ClassId of MyClass is {0}", myType->GUID ); }
