The GetTypeByIdent method retrieves a TypeDescription object based on a unique identifier. This method is part of the TypeLibrary class within the Sandbox.Internal namespace. It is useful for obtaining type information when you have an identifier that corresponds to a specific type.
To use the GetTypeByIdent method, you need to have an integer identifier that represents a type. This identifier is typically obtained through other methods in the TypeLibrary class, such as GetTypeIdent. Once you have the identifier, you can call this method to get the corresponding TypeDescription.
// Example usage of GetTypeByIdent
int typeId = 123; // Assume this is a valid type identifier
TypeDescription typeDescription = TypeLibrary.GetTypeByIdent(typeId);
if (typeDescription != null)
{
// Use the type description as needed
Console.WriteLine($"Type Name: {typeDescription.Name}");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("Type not found for the given identifier.");
}
