Module.IsDefined(Type, Boolean) Method

Definition

Returns a value that indicates whether the specified attribute type has been applied to this module.

public:
 virtual bool IsDefined(Type ^ attributeType, bool inherit);
public virtual bool IsDefined (Type attributeType, bool inherit);
abstract member IsDefined : Type * bool -> bool
override this.IsDefined : Type * bool -> bool
Public Overridable Function IsDefined (attributeType As Type, inherit As Boolean) As Boolean

Parameters

attributeType
Type

The type of custom attribute to test for.

inherit
Boolean

This argument is ignored for objects of this type.

Returns

true if one or more instances of attributeType have been applied to this module; otherwise, false.

Implements

Exceptions

attributeType is null.

attributeType is not a Type object supplied by the runtime. For example, attributeType is a TypeBuilder object.

Examples

The following example demonstrates a use of the IsDefined method.

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Reflection;

namespace ReflectionModule_Examples
{

   //A very simple custom attribute.

   [AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets::Class|AttributeTargets::Module)]
   public ref class MySimpleAttribute: public Attribute
   {
   private:
      String^ name;

   public:
      MySimpleAttribute( String^ newName )
      {
         name = newName;
      }

   };

}


//Define a module-level attribute.

[module:ReflectionModule_Examples::MySimpleAttribute("module-level")];
int main()
{
   array<System::Reflection::Module^>^moduleArray;
   moduleArray = ReflectionModule_Examples::MySimpleAttribute::typeid->Assembly->GetModules( false );
   
   //In a simple project with only one module, the module at index
   // 0 will be the module containing these classes.
   System::Reflection::Module^ myModule = moduleArray[ 0 ];
   Type^ myType;
   myType = myModule->GetType( "ReflectionModule_Examples.MySimpleAttribute" );
   Console::WriteLine( "IsDefined(MySimpleAttribute) = {0}", myModule->IsDefined( myType, false ) );
}

using System.Reflection;
