TypeForwardedToAttribute Class

Definition

Specifies a destination Type in another assembly.

public ref class TypeForwardedToAttribute sealed : Attribute
[System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Assembly, AllowMultiple=true, Inherited=false)]
public sealed class TypeForwardedToAttribute : Attribute
[<System.AttributeUsage(System.AttributeTargets.Assembly, AllowMultiple=true, Inherited=false)>]
type TypeForwardedToAttribute = class
    inherit Attribute

Remarks

Use the TypeForwardedToAttribute attribute to move a type from one assembly to another without disrupting callers that compiled against the old assembly.

Note Microsoft Visual Basic 2005 does not support the use of the TypeForwardedToAttribute attribute to forward types written in Visual Basic 2005. Applications written in Visual Basic 2005 can use forwarded types written in other languages.
