Name

EventToken

Synopsis

This class represents the token for an event. A token is a 4-byte number that points to the metadata description of a program element in MSIL. The first byte in the token identifies the metadata table, which depends on the type of program element. The remaining 3 bytes specify the row in the metadata table. For example, the token 0x06000004 specifies that the corresponding metadata is stored in the fourth row of table 0x06 (the MethodDef table).
