Re: Getting an mdTypeDef for the type of a field

When you're inside the EE, you can certainly get an IMetaDataImport pointer=
.=20
For example, if you have a Module*, you can get its IMetaDataImport pointer=
.

If you'd like to use the internal import interface, after doing a=20
GetSigOfFieldDef, you can use FieldSig class (siginfo.*pp) to pick out ever=
y=20
detail of the signature, including the field type.
