dotnet clr: Hi I am trying to call IMetaDataImport::GetClassLayout from a profiler and
it returns 0x80131130
What am I doing wrong?

In general is there another way to find out the offset a field within a
class?

That error is (from corerror.h, in the Include directory of the .NET SDK):

#define CLDB_E_RECORD_NOTFOUND EMAKEHR(0x1130) // Record
wasn't found on lookup.

You're probably getting it because only a very few classes have ClassLayout
information in the metadata--just those with ExplicitLayout. For the rest,
the CLR determines the layout at runtime.

In the v1.x profiling API, there is no way of determining the class layout
of a class that was laid out at runtime by the CLR. The v2 Beta 1 profiling
API has a GetClassLayout function on the profiling API itself that does
tell you this information.

HTH,

Jonathan
