<h1>Metadata Reading</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p />The Metadata API gives developers low-level access to the
|
|
information encoded in CLI modules: type and
|
|
methods definitions encoded in metadata as well as access to
|
|
the CIL code and embedded resources.
|
|
|
|
<p />Managed developers access this information using either the
|
|
System.Reflection API or a library
|
|
like <a href="http://www.mono-project.com/Cecil">Cecil</a>.
|
|
|
|
<p />To start using the Metadata API it is necessary
|
|
to <a href="mono-api-assembly.html#cil_assembly_load">open an
|
|
assembly</a> or a CIL image (a .dll or .exe file) using one of
|
|
the
|
|
<a href="mono-api-image.html#cil_image_open">CIL image
|
|
opening</a> API calls.
|
|
|
|
<h2>Metadata Heaps</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p />ECMA CLI images contain four heaps that store different
|
|
kinds of information, these are:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>GUID heap (called #GUID) contains 128-bit GUIDs,
|
|
you can get pointer to a GUID value by
|
|
calling <a href="#api:mono_metadata_guid_heap">mono_metadata_guid_heap</a>.
|
|
|
|
<li>User string heap (called #US), it contains user
|
|
visible strings, you can fetch a string from this heap
|
|
by calling
|
|
<a href="#api:mono_metadata_user_string">mono_metadata_user_string</a>.
|
|
|
|
<li>Blob heap (called #blob), it contains binary
|
|
blobs of data, you can get a blob
|
|
by <a href="#api:mono_metadata_blob_heap">mono_metadata_blob_heap</a>.
|
|
You can determine the size of the blob using
|
|
the <a href="#api:mono_metadata_decode_blob_size">mono_metadata_decode_blob_size</a>.
|
|
|
|
</li></li></li></ul>
|
|
|
|
<p />The ECMA file format also has an extra section called the
|
|
"#~" stream, this stream is the one that holds the metadata
|
|
tables. There is a high-level API to get access to the
|
|
contents of this API, described in the
|
|
section <a href="#metadata-tables">Metadata Tables</a>.

</div><h2>Metadata Tables</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p />Metadata is encoded in a number of tables included on every

|
CIL image. These tables contain type definitions, member
|
|
definitions and so on, these constants are defined in the ECMA 335
|
|
specification Partition II section 22. The following table
|
|
shows the C constants defined in the Mono runtime and how they
|
|
map to the equivalent ECMA CLI metadata table:

</table>

</center>
|
|
|
|
<p />Each table can contain zero or more rows, you must call the
|
|
<a href="#api:mono_metadata_table_rows">mono_metadata_table_rows</a>
|
|
to obtain the number of rows in a table, and then you can
|
|
extract individual row values by using
|
|
the <a href="#api:mono_metadata_decode_row">mono_metadata_decode_row</a>
|
|
or
|
|
the <a href="#api:mono_metadata_decode_row_col">mono_metadata_decode_row_col</a>.
|
|
When decoding rows you must provide an guint32 array large
|
|
enough to hold as many columns as the table contains.
|
|
|
|
<p />The metadata tables are stored in the MonoImage, you obtain
|
|
a pointer to the MonoTableInfo by calling
|
|
the <a href="#api:mono_image_get_table_info">mono_image_get_table_info</a>
|
|
and then you can scan those tables, for example:
|
|
|
|
<pre class="prettyprint">
|
|
/*
|
|
* Dumps a few fields from the AssemblyRef table
|
|
*/
|
|
void DumpAssemblyRefs (MonoImage *image)
|
|
{
|
|
/* Get a pointer to the AssemblyRef metadata table */
|
|
MonoTableInfo *t = mono_image_get_table_info (image, MONO_TABLE_ASSEMBLYREF);
|
|
|
|
/* Fetch the number of rows available in the table */
|
|
int rows = mono_table_info_get_rows (t);
|
|
int i;
|
|
|
|
/* For each row, print some of its values */
|
|
for (i = 0; i < rows; i++){
|
|
/* Space where we extract one row from the metadata table */
|
|
guint32 cols [MONO_ASSEMBLYREF_SIZE];
|
|
|
|
/* Extract the row into the array cols */
|
|
mono_metadata_decode_row (t, i, cols, MONO_ASSEMBLYREF_SIZE);
|
|
|
|
fprintf (output, "%d: Version=%d.%d.%d.%d\n\tName=%s\n", i + 1,
|
|
cols [MONO_ASSEMBLYREF_MAJOR_VERSION],
|
|
cols [MONO_ASSEMBLYREF_MINOR_VERSION],
|
|
cols [MONO_ASSEMBLYREF_BUILD_NUMBER],
|
|
cols [MONO_ASSEMBLYREF_REV_NUMBER],
|

mono_metadata_string_heap (image, cols [MONO_ASSEMBLYREF_NAME]));

|
|
<b>Returns</b>
|
|
<blockquote> a <i>MonoType</i> structure representing the decoded type.
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
<b>Remarks</b>
|
|
<p /> <p />
|
|
|
|
Decode a compressed type description found at <i>ptr</i> in <i>m</i>.
|
|
<i>mode</i> can be one of MONO_PARSE_MOD_TYPE, MONO_PARSE_PARAM, MONO_PARSE_RET,
|
|
MONO_PARSE_FIELD, MONO_PARSE_LOCAL, MONO_PARSE_TYPE.
|
|
This function can be used to decode type descriptions in method signatures,
|
|
field signatures, locals signatures etc.
|
|
|
|
To parse a generic type, `generic_container' points to the current class'es
|
|
(the `generic_container' field in the MonoClass) or the current generic method's
|
|
(stored in image->property_hash) generic container.
|
|
When we encounter any MONO_TYPE_VAR or MONO_TYPE_MVAR's, they're looked up in
|
|
this MonoGenericContainer.
|
|
|
|
LOCKING: Acquires the loader lock.
