ParameterInfo.Name Property

Definition

Gets the name of the parameter.

public:
 virtual property System::String ^ Name { System::String ^ get(); };
public virtual string Name { get; }
public virtual string? Name { get; }
member this.Name : string
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property Name As String

Property Value

The simple name of this parameter.

Examples

The following example shows how to get ParameterInfo objects for the parameters of a method, and then use the Name property to obtain the parameter names.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Reflection;
using namespace System::Runtime::InteropServices;
public ref class parminfo
{
public:
   static void mymethod( int int1m, [Out]interior_ptr<String^> str2m, interior_ptr<String^> str3m )
   {
       *str2m = "in mymethod";
   }

};

int main()
{
   Console::WriteLine( "\nReflection.Parameterinfo" );
   
   //Get the ParameterInfo parameter of a function.
   //Get the type.
   Type^ Mytype = Type::GetType( "parminfo" );
   
   //Get and display the method.
   MethodBase^ Mymethodbase = Mytype->GetMethod( "mymethod" );
   Console::Write( "\nMymethodbase = {0}", Mymethodbase );
   
   //Get the ParameterInfo array.
   array<ParameterInfo^>^Myarray = Mymethodbase->GetParameters();
   
   //Get and display the name of each parameter.
   System::Collections::IEnumerator^ enum0 = Myarray->GetEnumerator();
   while ( enum0->MoveNext() )
   {
      ParameterInfo^ Myparam = safe_cast<ParameterInfo^>(enum0->Current);
      Console::Write( "\nFor parameter # {0}, the Name is - {1}", Myparam->Position, Myparam->Name );
   }

   return 0;
}

Remarks

This property utilizes the protected NameImpl field, and depends on an optional metadata flag that might not be available in all compilers.

To get the ParameterInfo array, first get the method or the constructor and then call the MethodBase.GetParameters method.

Warning

If this ParameterInfo represents a return value (that is, if it was obtained by using the MethodInfo.ReturnParameter property), this property will be null.
