• monoTypeToVarType: Returns the Cheat Engine type (vtString, vtByte, vtWorkd, vtDword, vtSingle, vtDouble, vtPointer) for the given mono type.

Domains

• mono_enumDomains: Returns a table of domains addresses for each domain in the game.
• mono_setCurrentDomain: Sets the domain the MonoDataCollector will use.

Assemblies

• mono_enumAssemblies: Returns table of assembly Ids for each assembly in the current domain from the MonoDataCollector.

• mono_getImageFromAssembly: Returns the image Id for the passed assembly.
• mono_image_get_name: Returns the name of the assembly with the given image Id.
• mono_image_enumClasses: Returns a table of class Ids for then classes in the given assembly image.

Classes

• mono_object_getClass: Returns classId, className of the class at the given address in memory.
• mono_image_findClass: Returns the class Id of the given class name and namespace in an image.
• mono_findClass: Returns the class Id of the given class name and namespace
• mono_class_getName: Returns the class name as a string.
• Mono:Lua:mono_class_getNamespace: Returns the namespace of the given class as a string.
• mono_class_getParent: Returns the class Id of the parent class for the given class.
• mono_class_getStaticFieldAddress: Returns the base address for a special area that stores static addresses for a given class.
• mono_class_enumFields: Returns a table of field objects for fields in the given class.
• mono_class_enumMethods: Returns a table of method objects for the methods in the given class.
• mono_class_findMethod: Returns the method Id of the given method name in the given class.

JIT

• mono_getJitInfo: Returns a table with the properties given the address of code in memory.
• mono_compile_method: JITs a method if it isn't compiled yet.
• mono_free_method: Frees the method (memory), only if profiler isn't being used, and only works on dynamic methods.

Methods

• mono_findMethod: Returns the method Id of the given method name in the given class name in the namespace.
• mono_method_getName: Returns the name of a method given the method id.
• mono_method_getHeader: ?? Returns a header Id. ??
• mono_method_getSignature: ?? Returns result, parameternames, returntype. ??
• mono_method_disassemble: ?? Returns a string - ?? the IL code ??. ??
• mono_method_getClass: Returns the class Id a method belongs in.

• mono_methodheader_getILCode: Returns address, size.
• mono_getILCodeFromMethod: Combination of mono_method_getHeader and mono_methodheader_getILCode.

Invoke

• mono_invoke_method: Invokes a method with the given arguments.

Misc.

• mono_iamge_rva_map: ?? Not sure what this is. ??
• mono_loadAssemblyFromFile: Loads a C# assembly in the target process.

Cheat Engine Hooks

• mono_initialize: Sets up hooks, calls old open process hook if there was one, and calls syncrhonize("mono_OpenProcessMT").

• mono_OpenProcessMT: If timer (t) parameter is not nil; destroys timer then enumerates modules looking for 'mono.dll', and adds the mono menu item to Cheat Engine main form.
• mono_OpenProcess:

• mono_structureDissectOverrideCallback: Called by CE when a structure is being dissected to fill in the values if we know the structure.
• mono_structureNameLookupCallback: Called by CE when creating a new structure in the structure dissector.
• mono_symbolLookupCallback: Called by CE when it is trying to find the address to go with a symbol.
• mono_addressLookupCallback: Called by CE in the disassembly window to show a symbol name for the address.
