Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| NotSupportedException | This method is not implemented for incomplete types. |
Remarks
This method is not supported for incomplete types. Get the completed type by calling CreateType, and use reflection on the completed type.
If this type is complete, for example, if CreateType has been called on this type, but there are nested types that are not complete, then GetNestedTypes will only return those nested types for which CreateType has been called.
