Typedef (Debug Interface Access SDK)

Symbols with SymTagTypedef tags introduce names for other types.

Properties

The following table shows additional valid properties for this symbol type.

Property	Data type	Description
IDiaSymbol::get_baseType	DWORD	One of the BasicType values.
IDiaSymbol::get_classParent	IDiaSymbol*	Class parent of this typedef, if any.
IDiaSymbol::get_classParentId	DWORD	ID of the class parent symbol.
IDiaSymbol::get_constructor	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef has a constructor.
IDiaSymbol::get_constType	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef is marked as constant.
IDiaSymbol::get_hasAssignmentOperator	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef has an assignment operator.
IDiaSymbol::get_hasCastOperator	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef has a cast operator.
IDiaSymbol::get_hasNestedTypes	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef has nested types.
IDiaSymbol::get_length	ULONGLONG	Length of this typedef in bytes.
IDiaSymbol::get_lexicalParent	IDiaSymbol*	Symbol of the enclosing compiland.
IDiaSymbol::get_lexicalParentId	DWORD	ID of the lexical parent symbol.
IDiaSymbol::get_name	BSTR	Name of the typedef.
IDiaSymbol::get_nested	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef is nested in a lexical scope.
IDiaSymbol::get_overloadedOperator	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef has an overloaded operator.
IDiaSymbol::get_packed	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef is packed.
IDiaSymbol::get_reference	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef is a reference.
IDiaSymbol::get_scoped	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef is in a nonglobal lexical scope.
IDiaSymbol::get_symIndexId	DWORD	Index ID of symbol.
IDiaSymbol::get_symTag	DWORD	Returns SymTagTypedef (one of the SymTagEnum values).
IDiaSymbol::get_type	IDiaSymbol*	Symbol for the underlying type.
IDiaSymbol::get_typeId	DWORD	ID of the type symbol.
IDiaSymbol::get_udtKind	DWORD	One of the UdtKind values.
IDiaSymbol::get_unalignedType	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef is not aligned.
IDiaSymbol::get_virtualTableShape	IDiaSymbol*	The symbol that describes the virtual table shape.
IDiaSymbol::get_virtualTableShapeId	DWORD	ID of the virtual table shape symbol.
IDiaSymbol::get_volatileType	BOOL	TRUE if this typedef is marked as volatile.

Remarks

Since a typedef can represent a class, pointer, or user-defined type (UDT), the symbol for a typedef shares the same properties as one of those other types of symbols.
