IDiaSymbol::get_type
Retrieves the symbol that represents the type for this symbol.
HRESULT get_type (
IDiaSymbol** pRetVal
);
Parameters
- pRetVal
[out] Returns an IDiaSymbol object that represents the type of this symbol.
Return Value
If successful, returns S_OK; otherwise, returns S_FALSE or an error code.
Observação
A return value of S_FALSE means the property is not available for the symbol.
Remarks
To determine the type a symbol has, you must call this method and examine the resulting IDiaSymbol object. Note that it is possible for a symbol to not have a type. For example, the name of a structure has no type but it might have children symbols (use the IDiaSymbol::findChildren method to examine those children).
Example
IDiaSymbol* pType;
CComPtr<IDiaSymbol> pBaseType;
if (SUCCEEDED(pType->get_type( &pBaseType ))) {
BasicType btBaseType;
if (SUCCEEDED(pBaseType->get_baseType((DWORD *)&btBaseType))) {
// Do something with basic type.
}
}
