Examples

Since most of the usage of this class will fall on the inherited classes EventDescriptor and PropertyDescriptor, refer to the examples in these classes.

Remarks

MemberDescriptor is the base class for the EventDescriptor and the PropertyDescriptor classes. The EventDescriptor class provides a description of an event, and the PropertyDescriptor class provides a description of a property.

This class defines properties and methods to access its stored attributes. The Attributes property gets the collection of attributes. The Category, IsBrowsable, Description, and DesignTimeOnly properties retrieve the values of those specific attributes. The Name and DisplayName properties provide the name of the member.

The MemberDescriptor also defines an Equals method to compare this MemberDescriptor to another.

Note

Typically, you inherit from the EventDescriptor and PropertyDescriptor classes, and not from this class.

Constructors

MemberDescriptor(MemberDescriptor, Attribute[])

Initializes a new instance of the MemberDescriptor class with the name in the specified MemberDescriptor and the attributes in both the old MemberDescriptor and the Attribute array.

MemberDescriptor(MemberDescriptor)

Initializes a new instance of the MemberDescriptor class with the specified MemberDescriptor.

MemberDescriptor(String, Attribute[])

Initializes a new instance of the MemberDescriptor class with the specified name of the member and an array of attributes.

MemberDescriptor(String)

Initializes a new instance of the MemberDescriptor class with the specified name of the member.
