IMetaDataImport2::GetVersionString Method

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

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

Parameters

  • pwzBuf
    [out] An array to store the string that specifies the version.

  • ccBufSize
    [in] The size, in wide characters, of the pwzBuf array.

  • pccBufSize
    [out] The number of wide characters, including a null terminator, returned in the pwzBuf array.

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.
