Description

IAliasType Interface 1:

Attributes

Gets the attributes of the IDataType (Inherited from IDataType.)

IAliasType Interface 2:

BaseType

Gets the Base Type

IAliasType Interface 3:

BaseTypeName

Gets the BaseType name

IAliasType Interface 4:

BitSize

Gets the size of the IDataType in bits. (Inherited from IBitSize.)

IAliasType Interface 5:

ByteSize

Gets the (aligned) size of of the Type/Instance in Bytes (Inherited from IBitSize.)

IAliasType Interface 6:

Category

Gets the Data Type category (Inherited from IDataType.)

IAliasType Interface 7:

Comment

Gets the comment behind the variable declaration. (Inherited from IDataType.)

IAliasType Interface 8:

FullName

Gets the full name of the IDataType (Namespace + Name) (Inherited from IDataType.)

IAliasType Interface 9:

Id

Gets the ID of the DataType (Inherited from IDataType.)

IAliasType Interface 10:

IsBitType

Gets a value indicating whether this instance is not basing on a full DataType but instead of some sort of bit mapping (Inherited from IBitSize.)

IAliasType Interface 11:

IsByteAligned

Indicates that the Size of the Object is Byte aligned (BitSize % 8 == 0) (Inherited from IBitSize.)

IAliasType Interface 12:

Name

Gets the name of the Data Type (without namespace) (Inherited from IDataType.)

IAliasType Interface 13:

Namespace

Gets the namespace string within the IDataType exists. (Inherited from IDataType.)

IAliasType Interface 14:

Size

Gets the size of the object in bytes or Bits dependant on IsBitType (Inherited from IBitSize.)
