ICorDebugValue::GetType Method

Gets the primitive type of this "ICorDebugValue" object.

Syntax

HRESULT GetType (  
    [out] CorElementType   *pType  
);  

Parameters

pType
[out] A pointer to a value of the "CorElementType" enumeration that indicates the value's type.

Remarks

If the object is a complex run-time type, that type may be examined through the appropriate subclasses of the ICorDebugValue interface. For example, "ICorDebugObjectValue", which inherits from ICorDebugValue, represents a complex type.

The GetType and ICorDebugObjectValue::GetClass methods each return information about the type of a value. They are both superseded by the generics-aware ICorDebugValue2::GetExactType method.
