## Remarks
Byref-like structures are declared using `ref struct` keyword in C#. An instance of the byref-like structure can't be placed on the managed heap. For more information, see [Ref struct types](~/docs/csharp/language-reference/keywords/ref.md#ref-struct-types).

## Remarks

A signature type is a restricted type that can be passed to the <xref:System.Type.GetMethod%2A> method but does not support most of the other reflection functionality. For example, you can obtain the signature type instance corresponding to the generic method parameter by calling the <xref:System.Type.MakeGenericMethodParameter%2A> method.

## Remarks
A <xref:System.Type> instance is a type definition if it represents the type directly defined in assembly, in contrast to types that are constructed on demand based on other types. For example, a primitive type, class, structure, or generic type definition is a type definition, but an array, reference, pointer, or instantiated generic type isn't.

## Remarks
If the value of this property is `true` for an array type, it can be used to create single-dimensional or multi-dimensional array instances with arbitrary lower bounds. Otherwise, the array type can only be used to create instances of single-dimensional arrays with a zero lower bound.
