Marshal::GetTypeForITypeInfo Method (IntPtr)
Converts an unmanaged ITypeInfo object into a managed System::Type object.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- piTypeInfo
-
Type:
System::IntPtr
The ITypeInfo interface to marshal.
GetTypeForITypeInfo returns a System::Type instance that is based on the original type. You can apply the System.Runtime.InteropServices::MarshalAsAttribute to replace standard interop marshaling behavior with this custom marshaler. The Tlbimp.exe (Type Library Importer) tool uses the custom marshaler to translate ITypeInfo parameters to System::Type parameters. However, if you obtain an ITypeInfo interface by some means other than Tlbimp.exe, you can use GetTypeForITypeInfo to manually perform the same translation.
