IDebugHostType interface (dbgmodel.h)

An (IDebugHostSymbol derived) interface to a particular type.

A given language/native type is described by the IDebugHostType2 or IDebugHostType interfaces. Note that some of the methods on these interfaces only apply for specific kinds of types.

Inheritance

IDebugHostType inherits from IDebugHostSymbol.

Methods

The IDebugHostType interface has these methods.

IDebugHostType::AddRef The IDebugHostType::AddRef method increments the reference count for an interface on an object.
IDebugHostType::CreateArrayOf The IDebugHostType::CreateArrayOf method, when called on a type, gets a new IDebugHostType that is an array of the type with specified array dimensions.
IDebugHostType::CreatePointerTo The IDebugHostType::CreatePointerTo method, when called on a type, gets a new IDebugHostType that is a pointer to the type.
IDebugHostType::EnumerateChildren The IDebugHostType::EnumerateChildren method gets an enumerator capable of enumerating all children of a given symbol.
IDebugHostType::GetArrayDimensionality The IDebugHostType::GetArrayDimensionality method, when called on a type for an array, gets the dimensions of the array.
IDebugHostType::GetArrayDimensions The IDebugHostType::GetArrayDimensions method, when called on a type for an array, gets a set of descriptors, one for each dimension of the array.
IDebugHostType::GetBaseType The IDebugHostType::GetBaseType method, when called on a type, gets the base type. The base type is the target type for a pointer or element type for an array.
IDebugHostType::GetBitField The IDebugHostType::GetBitField method, when called on a type for a bitmap, gets information about the bitmap structure.
IDebugHostType::GetContainingModule The IDebugHostType::GetContainingModule method, when called on a symbol, gets the module that contains the symbol if the symbol has a containing module.
IDebugHostType::GetContext The IDebugHostType::GetContext method, when called on a symbol, gets the host context in which the symbol is located.
IDebugHostType::GetFunctionCallingConvention The GetFunctionCallingConvention method returns the calling convention of the function. Such is returned as a member of the CallingConventionKind enumeration.
IDebugHostType::GetFunctionParameterTypeAt The IDebugHostType::GetFunctionParameterTypeAt method, when called on a function type, gets the parameter type at a given index in the function's argument list.
IDebugHostType::GetFunctionParameterTypeCount The IDebugHostType::GetFunctionParameterTypeCount method, when called on a type for a function, gets the number of arguments that the function takes.
IDebugHostType::GetFunctionReturnType The IDebugHostType::GetFunctionReturnType method, when called on a type for a function, gets the return type of the function.
IDebugHostType::GetGenericArgumentAt The IDebugHostType::GetGenericArgumentAt method, when called on a function type, gets a generic argument at a given index in the function's argument list.
IDebugHostType::GetGenericArgumentCount The IDebugHostType::GetGenericArgumentCount method, when called on a type, gets the number of generic arguments to the type.
IDebugHostType::GetHashCode The IDebugHostType::GetHashCode method, when called on a type, gets a 32-bit hash code for the type.
IDebugHostType::GetIntrinsicType The IDebugHostType::GetIntrinsicType method, when called on a type, gets information about what kind of intrinsic the type is.
IDebugHostType::GetMemberType The IDebugHostType::GetMemberType method, when called on a type for a pointer to a module member, gets the class of the module member.
IDebugHostType::GetName Returns the name of the symbol if the symbol has a name. If the symbol does not have a name, an error is returned.
IDebugHostType::GetPointerKind The IDebugHostType::GetPointerKind method, when called on a type for a pointer, gets the kind of pointer specified by the PointerKind enumeration.
IDebugHostType::GetSize The IDebugHostType::GetSize method, when called on a type, gets the size of the type. This method is equivalent to sizeof(type) in C++.
IDebugHostType::GetSymbolKind The IDebugHostType::GetSymbolKind method, when called on a symbol, gets the kind of symbol, such as field, base class, or type.
IDebugHostType::GetType The IDebugHostType::GetType method, when called on a symbol, gets the type of symbol, such as int *.
IDebugHostType::GetTypeKind The IDebugHostType::GetTypeKind method, when called on a type, gets the kind of type specified by the TypeKind enumeration.
IDebugHostType::IsGeneric The IDebugHostType::IsGeneric method, when called on a type, gets whether the type is a generic or template.
IDebugHostType::QueryInterface The IDebugHostType::QueryInterface method retrieves pointers to the supported interfaces on an object.
IDebugHostType::Release The IDebugHostType::Release method decrements the reference count for an interface on an object.
