Public Function DefinePInvokeMethod (name As String, dllName As String, attributes As MethodAttributes, callingConvention As CallingConventions, returnType As Type, parameterTypes As Type(), nativeCallConv As CallingConvention, nativeCharSet As CharSet) As MethodBuilder

Parameters

name
String

The name of the PInvoke method. name cannot contain embedded nulls.

dllName
String

The name of the DLL in which the PInvoke method is defined.

attributes
MethodAttributes

The attributes of the method.

callingConvention
CallingConventions

The method's calling convention.

returnType
Type

The method's return type.

parameterTypes
Type[]

The types of the method's parameters.

nativeCallConv
CallingConvention

The native calling convention.

nativeCharSet
CharSet

The method's native character set.

Returns

MethodBuilder

The defined PInvoke method.

Exceptions

ArgumentException

The method is not static or if the containing type is an interface.

-or-

The method is abstract.

-or-

The method was previously defined.

ArgumentNullException

name or dllName is null.

InvalidOperationException

The containing type has been previously created using CreateType()

Examples

The following example illustrates the use of the DefinePInvokeMethod method to create a MethodBuilder for an external unmanaged method, MessageBoxA, in the Windows API. The example displays a message box with Retry and Cancel buttons, and displays the return value from the message box.

Important

To get a non-zero return value, you must add MethodImplAttributes.PreserveSig to the method implementation flags after you create the MethodBuilder, by using the MethodBuilder.GetMethodImplementationFlags and MethodBuilder.SetImplementationFlags methods.

Remarks

Some DLL import attributes (see the description of System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImportAttribute) cannot be specified as arguments to this method. Such attributes should be set by emitting a custom attribute for the method. For example, the DLL import attribute PreserveSig is set by emitting a custom attribute.

Note

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1, this member no longer requires ReflectionPermission with the ReflectionPermissionFlag.ReflectionEmit flag. (See Security Issues in Reflection Emit.) To use this functionality, your application should target the .NET Framework 3.5 or later.
