Compiler Error CS0276

'property/indexer': accessibility modifiers on accessors may only be used if the property or indexer has both a get and a set accessor

This error occurs when you declare a property or indexer with one accessor only, and use an access modifier on the accessor. To resolve, remove the access modifier or add another accessor.

Example

The following example generates CS0276:

// CS0276.cs
public class MyClass
{
    public int Property
    {
        protected set { }   // CS0276
    }
    public int Property2
    {
        internal get { }   // CS0276
    }
}
