Remarks

Note

SetCustomAttribute cannot be used to set declarative security attributes. Use one of the overloads of DefineDynamicAssembly that takes required, optional, and refused permissions.

Note

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1, this member no longer requires ReflectionPermission with the ReflectionPermissionFlag.ReflectionEmit flag. (See Security Issues in Reflection Emit.) To use this functionality, your application should target the .NET Framework 3.5 or later.

Source:
AssemblyBuilder.cs
Source:
AssemblyBuilder.cs

Set a custom attribute on this assembly using a specified custom attribute blob.

public:
 void SetCustomAttribute(System::Reflection::ConstructorInfo ^ con, cli::array <System::Byte> ^ binaryAttribute);
public void SetCustomAttribute (System.Reflection.ConstructorInfo con, byte[] binaryAttribute);
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisible(true)]

[<System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisible(true)>]
member this.SetCustomAttribute : System.Reflection.ConstructorInfo * byte[] -> unit
Public Sub SetCustomAttribute (con As ConstructorInfo, binaryAttribute As Byte())

Parameters

con
ConstructorInfo

The constructor for the custom attribute.

binaryAttribute
Byte[]

A byte blob representing the attributes.

Attributes

Exceptions

con or binaryAttribute is null.

The caller does not have the required permission.

con is not a RuntimeConstructorInfo object.

Remarks

For information on how to format binaryAttribute, see the metadata specification in Partition II of the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) specification.

RuntimeConstructorInfo is a special type generated by the system. It derives from the ConstructorInfo class, and any ConstructorInfo object you obtain through reflection is actually an instance of RuntimeConstructorInfo.

Note

SetCustomAttribute cannot be used to set declarative security attributes. Use one of the overloads of DefineDynamicAssembly that takes required, optional, and refused permissions.

Note

Starting with the .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1, this member no longer requires ReflectionPermission with the ReflectionPermissionFlag.ReflectionEmit flag. (See Security Issues in Reflection Emit.) To use this functionality, your application should target the .NET Framework 3.5 or later.
