C# Type GetInterface(String, Boolean)

Description

Type GetInterface(String, Boolean) when overridden in a derived class, searches for the specified interface, specifying whether to do a case-insensitive search for the interface name.

Syntax

Type.GetInterface(String, Boolean) has the following syntax.

public abstract Type GetInterface(
  string name,
  bool ignoreCase
)

Parameters

Type.GetInterface(String, Boolean) has the following parameters.

• name - The string containing the name of the interface to get. For generic interfaces, this is the mangled name.
• ignoreCase - true to ignore the case of that part of name that specifies the simple interface name (the part that specifies the namespace must be correctly cased).
• ignoreCase - -or-
• ignoreCase - false to perform a case-sensitive search for all parts of name.

Returns

Type.GetInterface(String, Boolean) method returns An object representing the interface with the specified name, implemented or inherited by the current Type, if found; otherwise, null.

Example

The following code example uses the GetInterface(String, Boolean) method to perform a case-insensitive search of the Hashtable class for the IEnumerable interface.

using System.Collections;
using System;// w w w.  j a va  2  s.c o  m
using System.Reflection;
public class MainClass
{
    public static void Main(String[] argv)
    {
        Hashtable hashtableObj = new Hashtable();
        Type objType = hashtableObj.GetType();
        MethodInfo[] arrayMethodInfo;

        arrayMethodInfo = objType.GetInterface("IDeserializationCallback", false).GetMethods();
        for (int index = 0; index < arrayMethodInfo.Length; index++)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(arrayMethodInfo[index].ToString());
        }
    }
}

The code above generates the following result.
