FieldInfo.MemberType Property

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

Gets a value that indicates that this member is a field.

Namespace:  System.Reflection
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Overrides ReadOnly Property MemberType As MemberTypes
public override MemberTypes MemberType { get; }

Property Value

Type: System.Reflection.MemberTypes
A value that indicates that this member is a field.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
MethodAccessException

This member is invoked late-bound through mechanisms such as Type.InvokeMember.

Remarks

This property overrides MemberType. Therefore, when you examine a set of MemberInfo objects — for example, the array returned by GetMembers — the MemberType property returns MemberTypes.Field only when a given member is a field.

Examples

The following example determines whether each instance member of the Example class is a field and displays the result.

Imports System.Reflection

' Make a field.
Public Class Example

   Private m_field As String = "a private field"

   Public ReadOnly Property Field() As String
      Get
         Return m_field
      End Get
   End Property

   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)

      outputBlock.Text &= "Reflection.FieldInfo" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf

      Dim instanceMembers() As MemberInfo = _
         GetType(Example).GetMembers(BindingFlags.Public Or BindingFlags.NonPublic Or _
                                     BindingFlags.Instance)
      For Each mi As MemberInfo In instanceMembers
         If mi.MemberType = MemberTypes.Field Then
            outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0} is a field. <----" & vbLf, mi.Name)
         Else
            outputBlock.Text += String.Format("{0} is not a field. " & vbLf, mi.Name)
         End If
      Next mi

   End Sub
End Class
