Type Class (System) (original) (raw)

The following example shows a few representative features of Type. The C# typeof operator (GetType operator in Visual Basic) is used to get a Type object representing String. From this Type object, the GetMethod method is used to get a MethodInfo representing the String.Substring overload that takes a starting location and a length.

To identify the overload signature, the code example creates a temporary array containing two Type objects representing int (Integer in Visual Basic).

The code example uses the MethodInfo to invoke the Substring method on the string "Hello, World!", and displays the result.
