      [out] ULONG             *pcOtherMethod 
);

Parameters

• prop
  [in] A token that represents the property to return metadata for.

• pClass
  [out] A pointer to the TypeDef token that represents the type that implements the property.

• szProperty
  [out] A buffer to hold the property name.

• cchProperty
  [in] The size in wide characters of szProperty.

• pchProperty
  [out] The number of wide characters returned in szProperty.

• pdwPropFlags
  [out] A pointer to any attribute flags applied to the property. This value is a bitmask from the CorPropertyAttr enumeration.

• ppvSig
  [out] A pointer to the metadata signature of the property.

• pbSig
  [out] The number of bytes returned in ppvSig.

• pdwCPlusTypeFlag
  [out] A flag specifying the type of the constant that is the default value of the property. This value is from the CorElementType enumeration.

• ppDefaultValue
  [out] A pointer to the bytes that store the default value for this property.

• pcchDefaultValue
  [out] The size in wide characters of ppDefaultValue, if pdwCPlusTypeFlag is ELEMENT_TYPE_STRING; otherwise, this value is not relevant. In that case, the length of ppDefaultValue is inferred from the type that is specified by pdwCPlusTypeFlag.

• pmdSetter
  [out] A pointer to the MethodDef token that represents the set accessor method for the property.

• pmdGetter
  [out] A pointer to the MethodDef token that represents the get accessor method for the property.

• rmdOtherMethod
  [out] An array of MethodDef tokens that represent other methods associated with the property.

• cMax
  [in] The maximum size of the rmdOtherMethod array. If you do not provide an array large enough to hold all the methods, they are skipped without warning.

• pcOtherMethod
  [out] The number of MethodDef tokens returned in rmdOtherMethod.
