Examples

The following example returns a value indicating whether or not the field of the class is private.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Reflection;

      myArray = s;
   }

   property String^ GetField 
   {
      String^ get()
      {
         return myField;
      }
   }

Remarks

Private fields are accessible only from member functions.

The IsPrivate property is set when the FieldAttributes.Private attribute is set.

To get the IsPrivate property, first get the class Type. From the Type, get the FieldInfo. From the FieldInfo, get the IsPrivate property. To access a non-public field, set the BindingFlags to NonPublic, and either Static or Instance in the GetField method.
