ResolveEntity(EntityHandle, GenericContext)

Resolves a symbol.

public IEntity ResolveEntity(EntityHandle entityHandle, GenericContext context = default)

Parameters

entityHandle EntityHandle
context GenericContext

Returns

IEntity

Remarks

  • Types are resolved to their definition, as IType does not implement ISymbol.
    • types without definition will resolve to null
    • use ResolveType() to properly resolve types
  • When resolving methods, varargs signatures are not expanded.
    • use ResolveMethod() instead to get an IMethod instance suitable for call-sites
  • May return specialized members, where generics are involved.
  • Other types of handles that don't correspond to TS entities, will return null.
