Interface ITypeRef
Interface for a Type in LLVM
public interface ITypeRef : IEquatable<ITypeRef>- Inherited Members
Remarks
important
The IEquatable<T> on this type ONLY deals with the native reference equality. That is, any reference type uses reference equality by default, but Equals(T) uses what is implemented or a default of reference equality for reference types. In this case it determines if the type refers to the exact same type instance. (Not an equivalent but different type). This is normally valid as LLVM underneath is uniqueing types within a context. As an example a managed implementation of ITypeRef `A` is a wrapper around an LLVM handle `H` that refers to an native LLVM type `T`. If there is also a ITypeRef `B`, then `A.Equals(B)` is true ONLY if `B` also wraps an LLVM handle that refers to native type `T`.
