- parent
- EntityHandle
The parent entity handle, which can be either a TypeDefinitionHandle or MethodDefinitionHandle.
- attributes
- GenericParameterAttributes
The generic parameter attributes.
- name
- StringHandle
The parameter name.
- index
- Int32
The zero-based parameter index.
Returns
A handle to the added generic parameter.
Exceptions
parent doesn't have the expected handle kind.
index is greater than UInt16.MaxValue.
Remarks
Generic parameters must be added in an order determined by the coded index of their parent entity (CodedIndex.TypeOrMethodDef(EntityHandle)).
Generic parameters with the same parent must be ordered by their index.
