public:
 System::Reflection::Emit::FieldBuilder ^ DefineField(System::String ^ fieldName, Type ^ type, System::Reflection::FieldAttributes attributes);
public System.Reflection.Emit.FieldBuilder DefineField (string fieldName, Type type, System.Reflection.FieldAttributes attributes);
member this.DefineField : string * Type * System.Reflection.FieldAttributes -> System.Reflection.Emit.FieldBuilder
Public Function DefineField (fieldName As String, type As Type, attributes As FieldAttributes) As FieldBuilder

Parameters

fieldName
String

The name of the field. fieldName cannot contain embedded nulls.

type
Type

The type of the field.

attributes
FieldAttributes

The attributes of the field.

Returns

The defined field.

Exceptions
