Goal: generate method like this in runtime:
public void InsertOnSubmit<T>(IQueryable<T> q, T o) where T : class, new()
{
(q as Table<T>).InsertOnSubmit(o);
}
My current code for this is:
var tb = mb.DefineType("DatabaseDataRepository");
// define & implement other methods, etc
/* Define InsertOnSubmit<> method */
var insertOnSubmitMethod = tb.DefineMethod("InsertOnSubmit",
MethodAttributes.Public | MethodAttributes.HideBySig | MethodAttributes.Virtual |
MethodAttributes.NewSlot);
var genericInput = insertOnSubmitMethod.DefineGenericParameters("T")[0];
genericInput.SetGenericParameterAttributes(GenericParameterAttributes.ReferenceTypeConstraint | GenericParameterAttributes.DefaultConstructorConstraint);
insertOnSubmitMethod.SetParameters(typeof(IQueryable<>).MakeGenericType(genericInput), genericInput);
insertOnSubmitMethod.SetReturnType(null);
/* Implement InsertOnSubmit<> method */
var saveMethodGen = insertOnSubmitMethod.GetILGenerator();
saveMethodGen.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_1); // push first argument (collection)
saveMethodGen.Emit(OpCodes.Isinst, typeof(Table<>).MakeGenericType(genericInput)); // cast first argument to Table<>
saveMethodGen.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg_2); // push second argument (element)
saveMethodGen.Emit(OpCodes.Callvirt, typeof(Table<>).GetMethod("InsertOnSubmit")); // insert second argument to table
saveMethodGen.Emit(OpCodes.Ret); // return from InsertOnSubmit method
But running this method on generated instance I get:
An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)
with stack at DatabaseDataRepository.InsertOnSubmit[T](IQueryable`1 , T )
I suspect there is something wrong in this line saveMethodGen.Emit(OpCodes.Callvirt, typeof(Table<>).GetMethod("InsertOnSubmit"));
- it should really be something like typeof(Table<>).MakeGenericType(genericInput).GetMethod("InsertOnSubmit")
- but this throws NotSupportedException
Any hints to tackle this? Thanks.
You have to use the static System.Reflection.Emit.Typebuilder.GetMethod
method to create the correctly typed MethodInfo
.
The msdn states:
Returns the method of the specified constructed generic type that corresponds to the specified method of the generic type definition.
In your case that would be:
Typebuilder.GetMethod(typeof(Table<>).MakeGenericType(genericInput), typeof(Table<>).GetMethod("InsertOnSubmit"))
