When overridden in a derived class, searches for the specified interface, specifying whether to do a case-insensitive search for the interface name.
An object representing the interface with the specified name, implemented or inherited by the current Type, if found; otherwise, null.
Type Reason ArgumentNullException name is null. System.Reflection.AmbiguousMatchException The current instance represents a type that implements the same generic interface with different type arguments.
The ignoreCase parameter applies only to the simple interface name, not to the namespace. The portion of name that specifies the namespace must have the correct case, or the interface will not be found. For example, the string "System.icomparable" finds the IComparable interface, but the string "system.icomparable" does not.
If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this method returns the Type with the type parameters replaced by the appropriate type arguments.
If the current Type represents a type parameter in the definition of a generic type or generic method, this method searches the interface constraints and any interfaces inherited from class or interface constraints.
For generic interfaces, the name parameter is the mangled name, ending with a grave accent (`) and the number of type parameters. This is true for both generic interface definitions and constructed generic interfaces. For example, to find IExample<T> (IExample(Of T) in Visual Basic) or IExample<string> (IExample(Of String) in Visual Basic), search for "IExample`1".
