When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether the value of this instance is the default value for the derived class.

public:
 virtual bool IsDefaultAttribute();

public virtual bool IsDefaultAttribute ();

abstract member IsDefaultAttribute : unit -> bool
override this.IsDefaultAttribute : unit -> bool

Public Overridable Function IsDefaultAttribute () As Boolean

Returns

Boolean

true if this instance is the default attribute for the class; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following code example illustrates the use of IsDefaultAttribute.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Reflection;

// An enumeration of animals. Start at 1 (0 = uninitialized).
public enum class Animal
{
   // Pets.
   Dog = 1,
   Cat, Bird
};


// A custom attribute to allow a target to have a pet.
public ref class AnimalTypeAttribute: public Attribute
{
public:

   // The constructor is called when the attribute is set.
   AnimalTypeAttribute( Animal pet )
   {
      thePet = pet;
   }

   // Provide a default constructor and make Dog the default.
   AnimalTypeAttribute()
   {
      thePet = Animal::Dog;
   }

protected:

   // Keep a variable internally ...
   Animal thePet;

public:

   property Animal Pet 
   {
      // .. and show a copy to the outside world.
      Animal get()
      {
         return thePet;
      }
      void set( Animal value )
      {
         thePet = value;
      }

   }

   // Override IsDefaultAttribute to return the correct response.
   virtual bool IsDefaultAttribute() override
   {
      return thePet == Animal::Dog;
   }
};

public ref class TestClass
{
public:

   // Use the default constructor.

   [AnimalType]
   void Method1(){}
};

int main()
{
   // Get the class type to access its metadata.

   // Check to see if the default attribute is applied.
   Console::WriteLine( "The attribute {0} for method {1} in class {2}", atAttr->Pet, mInfo->Name, clsType->Name );
   Console::WriteLine( "{0} the default for the AnimalType attribute.", atAttr->IsDefaultAttribute() ? (String^)"is" : "is not" );

Remarks

The default implementation of this class returns false, and must be implemented in the derived class to be useful to that class.

The implementation of this method in a derived class compares the value of this instance to a standard default value, then returns a Boolean value that indicates whether the value of this instance is equal to the standard value. The standard value is typically coded as a constant in the implementation, or stored programmatically in a field used by the implementation.
