ICorDebugAppDomain2::GetArrayOrPointerType Method

Gets an array of the specified type, or a pointer or reference to the specified type.

HRESULT GetArrayOrPointerType (
    [in]  CorElementType    elementType,
    [in]  ULONG32           nRank,
    [in]  ICorDebugType     *pTypeArg,
    [out] ICorDebugType     **ppType
);

Parameters

• elementType
  [in] A value of the CorElementType enumeration that specifies the underlying native type (an array, pointer, or reference) to be created.

• nRank
  [in] The rank (that is, number of dimensions) of the array. This value must be 0 if elementType specifies a pointer or reference type.

• pTypeArg
  [in] A pointer to an ICorDebugType object that represents the type of array, pointer, or reference to be created.

• ppType
  [out] A pointer to the address of an ICorDebugType object that represents the constructed array, pointer type, or reference type.

Remarks

The value of elementType must be one of the following:

• ELEMENT_TYPE_PTR

• ELEMENT_TYPE_BYREF

• ELEMENT_TYPE_ARRAY or ELEMENT_TYPE_SZARRAY

If the value of elementType is ELEMENT_TYPE_PTR or ELEMENT_TYPE_BYREF, nRank must be zero.
