IMetaDataImport2::GetVersionString method (rometadataapi.h)

Gets the version number of the runtime that was used to build the assembly.

Syntax

HRESULT GetVersionString(
  [out] LPWSTR pwzBuf,
  [in]  DWORD  ccBufSize,
  [out] DWORD  *pccBufSize
);

Parameters

[out] pwzBuf

An array to store the string that specifies the version.

[in] ccBufSize

The size, in wide characters, of the pwzBuf array.

[out] pccBufSize

The number of wide characters, including a null terminator, returned in the pwzBuf array.

Return value

If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Remarks

The GetVersionString method gets the built-for version of the current metadata scope. If the scope has never been saved, it will not have a built-for version, and an empty string will be returned.
