Parameters

elementType
The browse path element type to be tested.

Return Value

Returns true if the given element type implies a reference type; otherwise, returns false.

This return value of this method should not be ignored.

Remarks

This method is pure, i.e. it does not have observable side effects.

This is an extension method (info: C#, VB.NET). In languages that have support for extensions methods (such as C# and VB.NET), you can use the extension method as if it were a regular method on the object that is its first parameter. In other languages (such as with Python.NET), you will call the extension as a static method, and pass it the object on which it acts as its first parameter.

Requirements

Target Platforms: .NET Framework: Windows 10 (selected versions), Windows 11 (selected versions), Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2022; .NET: Linux, macOS, Microsoft Windows
