docs/sources/mono-api-class.html
The operations on MonoClass* allow you to query a number of properties of a .NET class from the C API.
This page contains information for how to obtain a MonoClass*, how to probe for different features of a MonoClass* and APIs to access class members and access fields. To access methods, see the method documentation API.
You typically would obtain a MonoClass* pointer by using a combination of the MonoImage* where the type is located, the namespace and name using the mono_class_from_name or the mono_class_from_name_case APIs or by using the mono_class_from_typeref or mono_class_from_typeref_checked methods.
For low-level access, you can get the MonoClass * from an image and an ECMA type token relative to the MonoImage* by using mono_class_get.
