MemberInfo.Module Property
Definition
Important
Some information relates to prerelease product that may be substantially modified before it’s released. Microsoft makes no warranties, express or implied, with respect to the information provided here.
Gets the module in which the type that declares the member represented by the current MemberInfo is defined.
public:
virtual property System::Reflection::Module ^ Module { System::Reflection::Module ^ get(); };
public virtual System.Reflection.Module Module { get; }
member this.Module : System.Reflection.Module
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property Module As Module
Property Value
The Module in which the type that declares the member represented by the current MemberInfo is defined.
Exceptions
This method is not implemented.
Examples
The following code example declares a class that inherits Object and overrides Object.ToString. The example obtains MethodInfo objects for the class's ToString
method and for the inherited GetHashCode method, and displays the names of the modules in which the two methods are declared.
using namespace System;
using namespace System::Reflection;
public ref class Test
{
public:
virtual String^ ToString() override
{
return "An instance of class Test!";
}
};
int main()
{
Test^ target = gcnew Test();
MethodInfo^ toStringInfo = target->GetType()->GetMethod("ToString");
Console::WriteLine("{0} is defined in {1}", toStringInfo->Name,
toStringInfo->Module->Name);
MethodInfo^ getHashCodeInfo = target->GetType()->GetMethod("GetHashCode");
Console::WriteLine("{0} is defined in {1}", getHashCodeInfo->Name,
getHashCodeInfo->Module->Name);
}
/*
* This example produces the following console output:
*
* ToString is defined in source.exe
* GetHashCode is defined in mscorlib.dll
*/
using System;
using System.Reflection;
public class Test
{
public override string ToString()
{
return "An instance of class Test!";
}
}
public class Example
{
public static void Main()
{
Test t = new Test();
MethodInfo mi = t.GetType().GetMethod("ToString");
Console.WriteLine("{0} is defined in {1}", mi.Name, mi.Module.Name);
mi = t.GetType().GetMethod("GetHashCode");
Console.WriteLine("{0} is defined in {1}", mi.Name, mi.Module.Name);
}
}
/* This example produces code similar to the following:
ToString is defined in source.exe
GetHashCode is defined in mscorlib.dll
*/
Imports System.Reflection
Public Class Test
Public Overrides Function ToString() As String
Return "An instance of class Test!"
End Function
End Class
Public Class Example
Public Shared Sub Main()
Dim t As New Test()
Dim mi As MethodInfo = t.GetType().GetMethod("ToString")
Console.WriteLine(mi.Name & " is defined in " & mi.Module.Name)
mi = t.GetType().GetMethod("GetHashCode")
Console.WriteLine(mi.Name & " is defined in " & mi.Module.Name)
End Sub
End Class
' This example produces code similar to the following:
'
'ToString is defined in source.exe
'GetHashCode is defined in mscorlib.dll
Remarks
This property is provided as a convenience. It is equivalent to using the DeclaringType property to get the type in which the method is declared, and then calling the Module property of the resulting Type object.
