Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Indicates to compilers that a method call or attribute should be ignored unless a specified conditional compilation symbol is defined.

Syntax

'Declaration

The ConditionalAttribute type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	ConditionalAttribute	Initializes a new instance of the ConditionalAttribute class.

Properties

	Name	Description
	ConditionString	Gets the conditional compilation symbol that is associated with the ConditionalAttribute attribute.

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals	Infrastructure. Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode	Returns the hash code for this instance. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	Match	When overridden in a derived class, returns a value that indicates whether this instance equals a specified object. (Inherited from Attribute.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

You can apply the ConditionalAttribute attribute to methods and classes. However, its use on classes is valid only for types that are derived from Attribute. ConditionalAttribute either will be ignored or will produce a compiler warning or error message if you apply it to any other type.

Applying ConditionalAttribute to a method indicates to compilers that a call to the method should not be compiled into Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) unless the conditional compilation symbol that is associated with ConditionalAttribute is defined. Applying ConditionalAttribute to an attribute indicates that the attribute should not be emitted to metadata unless the conditional compilation symbol is defined. Any arguments passed to the method or attribute are still type-checked by the compiler.

You can use the following techniques to define conditional compilation symbols:

Compiler command-line options (for example, /define:DEBUG).
Environment variables in the operating system shell (for example, set DEBUG=1).
Pragmas in the source code (for example, #define DEBUG to define the compilation variable and #undef DEBUG to undefine it).

Compilers that comply with the Common Language Specification (CLS) are permitted to ignore ConditionalAttribute. The C#, J#, and Visual Basic compilers support ConditionalAttribute; the C++ and JScript compilers do not support the attribute.

ConditionalAttribute is applied to the methods that are defined in the Debug class.
