SignatureHelper Class
Provides methods for building signatures.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | AddArgument(Type) | Adds an argument to the signature. |
![]() | AddArgument(Type, Boolean) | Adds an argument of the specified type to the signature, specifying whether the argument is pinned. |
![]() | AddArgument(Type, Type(), Type()) | Adds an argument to the signature, with the specified custom modifiers. |
![]() | AddArguments(Type(), Type()(), Type()()) | Adds a set of arguments to the signature, with the specified custom modifiers. |
![]() | AddSentinel() | Marks the end of a vararg fixed part. This is only used if the caller is creating a vararg signature call site. |
![]() | Equals(Object) | Checks if this instance is equal to the given object.(Overrides Object.Equals(Object).) |
![]() ![]() | GetFieldSigHelper(Module) | Returns a signature helper for a field. |
![]() | GetHashCode() | Creates and returns a hash code for this instance.(Overrides Object.GetHashCode().) |
![]() ![]() | GetLocalVarSigHelper() | Returns a signature helper for a local variable. |
![]() ![]() | GetLocalVarSigHelper(Module) | Returns a signature helper for a local variable. |
![]() ![]() | GetMethodSigHelper(CallingConvention, Type) | Returns a signature helper for a method given the method's unmanaged calling convention and return type. |
![]() ![]() | GetMethodSigHelper(CallingConventions, Type) | Returns a signature helper for a method given the method's calling convention and return type. |
![]() ![]() | GetMethodSigHelper(Module, CallingConvention, Type) | Returns a signature helper for a method given the method's module, unmanaged calling convention, and return type. |
![]() ![]() | GetMethodSigHelper(Module, CallingConventions, Type) | Returns a signature helper for a method given the method's module, calling convention, and return type. |
![]() ![]() | GetMethodSigHelper(Module, Type, Type()) | Returns a signature helper for a method with a standard calling convention, given the method's module, return type, and argument types. |
![]() ![]() | GetPropertySigHelper(Module, CallingConventions, Type, Type(), Type(), Type(), Type()(), Type()()) | Returns a signature helper for a property, given the dynamic module that contains the property, the calling convention, the property type, the property arguments, and custom modifiers for the return type and arguments. |
![]() ![]() | GetPropertySigHelper(Module, Type, Type()) | Returns a signature helper for a property, given the dynamic module that contains the property, the property type, and the property arguments. |
![]() ![]() | GetPropertySigHelper(Module, Type, Type(), Type(), Type(), Type()(), Type()()) | Returns a signature helper for a property, given the dynamic module that contains the property, the property type, the property arguments, and custom modifiers for the return type and arguments. |
![]() | GetSignature() | Adds the end token to the signature and marks the signature as finished, so no further tokens can be added. |
![]() | GetType() | |
![]() | ToString() | Returns a string representing the signature arguments.(Overrides Object.ToString().) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | _SignatureHelper.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr) | Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. |
![]() ![]() | _SignatureHelper.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr) | Retrieves the type information for an object, which can then be used to get the type information for an interface. |
![]() ![]() | _SignatureHelper.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32) | Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). |
![]() ![]() | _SignatureHelper.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr) | Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. |
Use the SignatureHelper class to create a signature blob that can be passed to the SetLocalSignature method of the DynamicILInfo class. A SignatureHelper object can also be passed to the ILGenerator.Emit(OpCode, SignatureHelper) method overload to insert an instruction and a signature token into a Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) stream. For information on signature blobs and signature metadata, see the ECMA Partition II Metadata documentation.
