ModuleBuilder.GetType Method (String, Boolean, Boolean)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Gets the named type defined in this module, optionally ignoring the case of the type name. Optionally throws an exception if the type is not found.

Namespace:  System.Reflection.Emit
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<ComVisibleAttribute(True)> _
Public Overrides Function GetType ( _
    className As String, _
    throwOnError As Boolean, _
    ignoreCase As Boolean _
) As Type

[ComVisibleAttribute(true)]
public override Type GetType(
    string className,
    bool throwOnError,
    bool ignoreCase
)

Parameters

  • throwOnError
    Type: System.Boolean
    true to throw an exception if the type cannot be found; false to return nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
  • ignoreCase
    Type: System.Boolean
    If true, the search is case-insensitive. If false, the search is case-sensitive.

Return Value

Type: System.Type
The requested type, if the type is defined in this module; otherwise, nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentException

Length of className is zero or is greater than 1023.
ArgumentNullException

className is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
TargetInvocationException

A class initializer is invoked and throws an exception.
TypeLoadException

throwOnError is true and the specified type is not found.

Remarks

The throwOnError parameter only affects what happens when the type is not found. It does not affect any other exceptions that might be thrown. In particular, if the type is found but cannot be loaded, TypeLoadException can be thrown even if throwOnError is false.

Do not use this method to generate array types, pointer types, or byref types. Use the TypeBuilder.MakeArrayType, TypeBuilder.MakePointerType, and TypeBuilder.MakeByRefType methods instead.
