Type::Module Property
.NET Framework (current version)
Gets the module (the DLL) in which the current Type is defined.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Implements
_Type::ModuleIf the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this property returns the module in which the generic type definition was defined. For example, if you create an instance of MyGenericStack<int>, the Module property for the constructed type returns the module in which MyGenericStack<T> is defined.
Similarly, if the current Type represents a generic parameter T, this property returns the assembly that contains the generic type that defines T.
This following example demonstrates a use of the Namespace and Module properties and the ToString method of Type.
using namespace System; namespace MyNamespace { ref class MyClass { }; } void main() { Type^ myType = MyNamespace::MyClass::typeid; Console::WriteLine("Displaying information about {0}:", myType ); // Get the namespace of the class MyClass. Console::WriteLine(" Namespace: {0}", myType->Namespace ); // Get the name of the module. Console::WriteLine(" Module: {0}", myType->Module ); // Get the fully qualified common language runtime namespace. Console::WriteLine(" Fully qualified type: {0}", myType ); } // The example displays the following output: // Displaying information about MyNamespace.MyClass: // Namespace: MyNamespace // Module: type_tostring.exe // Fully qualified name: MyNamespace.MyClass
