- nonPublic
- Boolean
Indicates whether the accessor should be returned if it is non-public. true if a non-public accessor is to be returned; otherwise, false.
Returns
This property's Set method, or null, as shown in the following table.
| Value | Condition |
|---|---|
The Set method for this property.
| The set accessor is public, OR nonPublic is true and the set accessor is non-public.
|
null | nonPublic is true, but the property is read-only, OR nonPublic is false and the set accessor is non-public, OR there is no set accessor.

Exceptions
The requested method is non-public and the caller does not have ReflectionPermission to reflect on this non-public method.
Examples
The following example displays the set accessor for the specified property.
using namespace System;
using namespace System::Reflection;
// Define a property.
public ref class Myproperty
{
private:
String^ caption;
public:
property String^ Caption
{
String^ get()
{

}
void set( String^ value )
{
if ( caption != value )
{
caption = value;
}
}
}
};

{
Console::WriteLine( "\nReflection.PropertyInfo" );
// Get the type and PropertyInfo for two separate properties.
Type^ MyTypea = Type::GetType( "Myproperty" );
PropertyInfo^ Mypropertyinfoa = MyTypea->GetProperty( "Caption" );
Type^ MyTypeb = Type::GetType( "System.Text.StringBuilder" );
PropertyInfo^ Mypropertyinfob = MyTypeb->GetProperty( "Length" );
// Get and display the GetSetMethod method for each property.
