Type^ myType = Type::GetTypeFromHandle( myTypeHandle ); // Display the type. Console::WriteLine( "\nDisplaying the type from the handle:\n" ); Console::WriteLine( "The type is {0}.", myType ); } int main() { try { MyClass^ myClass = gcnew MyClass; // Get the type of MyClass. Type^ myClassType = myClass->GetType(); // Get the runtime handle of MyClass. RuntimeTypeHandle myClassHandle = myClassType->TypeHandle; DisplayTypeHandle( myClassHandle ); } catch ( Exception^ e ) { Console::WriteLine( "Exception: {0}", e->Message ); } }
