ILGenerator emits a Break instruction when storing elements in an array

I'm generating dynamic types using ILGenerator.Emit. I am generating a method body that will store the types of the method arguments in an array. To actually store the elements in the array I am looping through parameters of a given method and building up the necessary IL to store the elements. On the second iteration a Break instruction appears after the Stelem.ref (L_003d below) instruction. This always happens on the second iteration and I cannot figure out why. Here is the code:

        ilGenerator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldc_I4, exampleMethod.GetParameters().Length);
        ilGenerator.Emit(OpCodes.Newarr, typeof(Type));
        ilGenerator.Emit(OpCodes.Stloc, typeArray);

        for (int idx = 0; idx < exampleMethod.GetParameters().Length; idx++)
        {
            ilGenerator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldloc, typeArray);
            ilGenerator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldc_I4, idx);
            ilGenerator.Emit(OpCodes.Ldarg, idx + 1);
            ilGenerator.Emit(OpCodes.Box, typeof(int));
            ilGenerator.EmitCall(OpCodes.Callvirt, typeof(object).GetMethod("GetType"), null);
            ilGenerator.Emit(OpCodes.Stelem_Ref, idx);//second iteration causes a break to be output in the IL
        }

        ilGenerator.Emit(OpCodes.Ret);

and the IL output is here

Any pointers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

The opcode for break is 0x01, which incidentally is also the idx value you pass as a parameter to the stelem.ref emit. Note that there's an extra ldarg.0 on the third iteration (where idx is 2).

You should not specify a parameter to the stelem emit.
