ParameterInfo.IsOut Property

Definition

Gets a value indicating whether this is an output parameter.

public:
 property bool IsOut { bool get(); };
public bool IsOut { get; }
member this.IsOut : bool
Public ReadOnly Property IsOut As Boolean

Property Value

true if the parameter is an output parameter; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following example shows how to test method parameters for the ParameterAttributes.In, ParameterAttributes.Out, and ParameterAttributes.Optional attributes.

The example contains a DefineMethod method that does the following:

After executing DefineMethod, the example searches the assemblies that are currently loaded until it finds the dynamic assembly. It loads MyType from the assembly, gets a MethodInfo object for the MyMethod method, and examines the parameters. The example uses the IsIn, IsOut, and IsOptional properties to display information about the parameters.

using namespace System::Runtime::InteropServices;
public ref class parminfo
{
public:
   static void mymethod( int int1m, [Out]interior_ptr<String^> str2m, interior_ptr<String^> str3m )
   {
       *str2m = "in mymethod";
   }

};

int main()
{
   Console::WriteLine( "\nReflection.Parameterinfo" );
   
   //Get the ParameterInfo parameter of a function.
   //Get the type.
   Type^ Mytype = Type::GetType( "parminfo" );
   
   //Get and display the method.
   MethodBase^ Mymethodbase = Mytype->GetMethod( "mymethod" );
   Console::Write( "\nMymethodbase = {0}", Mymethodbase );
   
   //Get the ParameterInfo array.
   array<ParameterInfo^>^Myarray = Mymethodbase->GetParameters();
   
   //Get and display the IsOut of each parameter.
   System::Collections::IEnumerator^ enum0 = Myarray->GetEnumerator();
   while ( enum0->MoveNext() )
   {
      ParameterInfo^ Myparam = safe_cast<ParameterInfo^>(enum0->Current);
      Console::Write( "\nFor parameter # {0}, the IsOut is - {1}", Myparam->Position, Myparam->IsOut );

Remarks

This method depends on an optional metadata flag. This flag can be inserted by compilers, but the compilers are not obligated to do so.

This method utilizes the Out flag of the ParameterAttributes enumerator.

To get the ParameterInfo array, first get the method or the constructor and then call MethodBase.GetParameters.
