Properties

AllInterfaces	The list of all interfaces of which this type is a declared subtype, excluding this type itself. This includes all declared base interfaces, all declared base interfaces of base types, and all declared base interfaces of those results (recursively). This also is the effective interface set of a type parameter. Each result appears exactly once in the list. This list is topologically sorted by the inheritance relationship: if interface type A extends interface type B, then A precedes B in the list. This is not quite the same as "all interfaces of which this type is a proper subtype" because it does not take into account variance: AllInterfaces for IEnumerable<string> will not include IEnumerable<object>. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
BaseType	The declared base type of this type, or null. The object type, interface types, and pointer types do not have a base type. The base type of a type parameter is its effective base class. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
CanBeReferencedByName	Returns true if this symbol can be referenced by its name in code. (Inherited from ISymbol)
ContainingAssembly	Gets the IAssemblySymbol for the containing assembly. Returns null if the symbol is shared across multiple assemblies. (Inherited from ISymbol)
ContainingModule	Gets the IModuleSymbol for the containing module. Returns null if the symbol is shared across multiple modules. (Inherited from ISymbol)
ContainingNamespace	Gets the INamespaceSymbol for the nearest enclosing namespace. Returns null if the symbol isn't contained in a namespace. (Inherited from ISymbol)
ContainingSymbol	Gets the ISymbol for the immediately containing symbol. (Inherited from ISymbol)
ContainingType	Gets the INamedTypeSymbol for the containing type. Returns null if the symbol is not contained within a type. (Inherited from ISymbol)
DeclaredAccessibility	Gets a Accessibility indicating the declared accessibility for the symbol. Returns NotApplicable if no accessibility is declared. (Inherited from ISymbol)
DeclaringSyntaxReferences	Get the syntax node(s) where this symbol was declared in source. Some symbols (for example, partial classes) may be defined in more than one location. This property should return one or more syntax nodes only if the symbol was declared in source code and also was not implicitly declared (see the IsImplicitlyDeclared property). Note that for namespace symbol, the declaring syntax might be declaring a nested namespace. For example, the declaring syntax node for N1 in "namespace N1.N2 {...}" is the entire NamespaceDeclarationSyntax for N1.N2. For the global namespace, the declaring syntax will be the CompilationUnitSyntax. (Inherited from ISymbol)
HasUnsupportedMetadata	Indicates that this symbol uses metadata that cannot be supported by the language. Examples include: Pointer types in VB ByRef return type Required custom modifiers This is distinguished from, for example, references to metadata symbols defined in assemblies that weren't referenced. Symbols where this returns true can never be used successfully, and thus should never appear in any IDE feature. This is set for metadata symbols, as follows: Type - if a type is unsupported (for example, a pointer type) Method - parameter or return type is unsupported Field - type is unsupported Event - type is unsupported Property - type is unsupported Parameter - type is unsupported (Inherited from ISymbol)
Interfaces	Gets the set of interfaces that this type directly implements. This set does not include interfaces that are base interfaces of directly implemented interfaces. This does include the interfaces declared as constraints on type parameters. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsAbstract	Gets a value indicating whether the symbol is abstract. (Inherited from ISymbol)
IsAnonymousType	Is this a symbol for an anonymous type (including anonymous VB delegate). (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsDefinition	Gets a value indicating whether the symbol is the original definition. Returns false if the symbol is derived from another symbol, by type substitution for instance. (Inherited from ISymbol)
IsExtern	Gets a value indicating whether the symbol is defined externally. (Inherited from ISymbol)
IsImplicitlyDeclared	Returns true if this symbol was automatically created by the compiler, and does not have an explicit corresponding source code declaration. (Inherited from ISymbol)
IsNamespace	Returns true if this symbol is a namespace. If it is not a namespace, it must be a type. (Inherited from INamespaceOrTypeSymbol)
IsNativeIntegerType	True if the type represents a native integer. In C#, the types represented by language keywords 'nint' and 'nuint'. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsOverride	Gets a value indicating whether the symbol is an override of a base class symbol. (Inherited from ISymbol)
IsReadOnly	True if the type is readonly. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsRecord	For source symbols, true if the type is a record. For metadata symbols, true if the type is a record and a reference type. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsReferenceType	True if this type is known to be a reference type. It is never the case that IsReferenceType and IsValueType both return true. However, for an unconstrained type parameter, IsReferenceType and IsValueType will both return false. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsRefLikeType	True if the type is ref-like, meaning it follows rules similar to CLR by-ref variables. False if the type is not ref-like or if the language has no concept of ref-like types. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsSealed	Gets a value indicating whether the symbol is sealed. (Inherited from ISymbol)
IsStatic	Gets a value indicating whether the symbol is static. (Inherited from ISymbol)
IsTupleType	Is this a symbol for a tuple . (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsType	Returns true if this symbols is a type. If it is not a type, it must be a namespace. (Inherited from INamespaceOrTypeSymbol)
IsUnmanagedType	True if the type is unmanaged according to language rules. False if managed or if the language has no concept of unmanaged types. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsValueType	True if this type is known to be a value type. It is never the case that IsReferenceType and IsValueType both return true. However, for an unconstrained type parameter, IsReferenceType and IsValueType will both return false. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
IsVirtual	Gets a value indicating whether the symbol is virtual. (Inherited from ISymbol)
Kind	Gets the SymbolKind indicating what kind of symbol it is. (Inherited from ISymbol)
Language	Gets the source language ("C#" or "Visual Basic"). (Inherited from ISymbol)
Locations	Gets the locations where the symbol was originally defined, either in source or metadata. Some symbols (for example, partial classes) may be defined in more than one location. (Inherited from ISymbol)
MetadataName	Gets the name of a symbol as it appears in metadata. Most of the time, this is the same as the Name property, with the following exceptions: The metadata name of generic types includes the "`1", "`2" etc. suffix that indicates the number of type parameters (it does not include, however, names of containing types or namespaces). The metadata name of explicit interface names have spaces removed, compared to the name property. The length of names is limited to not exceed metadata restrictions. (Inherited from ISymbol)
MetadataToken	Gets the metadata token associated with this symbol, or 0 if the symbol is not loaded from metadata. (Inherited from ISymbol)
Name	Gets the symbol name. Returns the empty string if unnamed. (Inherited from ISymbol)
NullableAnnotation	Nullable annotation associated with the type, or None if there are none. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
OriginalDefinition	The original definition of this symbol. If this symbol is constructed from another symbol by type substitution then OriginalDefinition gets the original symbol as it was defined in source or metadata. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
SpecialType	An enumerated value that identifies certain 'special' types such as Object. Returns None if the type is not special. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
TypeKind	An enumerated value that identifies whether this type is an array, pointer, enum, and so on. (Inherited from ITypeSymbol)
