Type.Attributes Property

Definition

Gets the attributes associated with the Type.

public:
 property System::Reflection::TypeAttributes Attributes { System::Reflection::TypeAttributes get(); };
public System.Reflection.TypeAttributes Attributes { get; }
member this.Attributes : System.Reflection.TypeAttributes
Public ReadOnly Property Attributes As TypeAttributes

Property Value

A TypeAttributes object representing the attribute set of the Type, unless the Type represents a generic type parameter, in which case the value is unspecified.

Implements

Examples

The following example uses the Attributes property.

using System.Reflection;

internal struct S

Remarks

Some members of the TypeAttributes enumeration are masks that represent a group of values. Each group includes one member whose underlying value is zero. For example, the underlying value of the TypeAttributes.NotPublic member in the TypeAttributes.VisibilityMask group is zero, as is the TypeAttributes.AutoLayout member in the TypeAttributes.SequentialLayout group. Because of this, you must use the mask before testing for those values. The example provides an illustration.

Tip

For most purposes, properties like IsClass,IsAutoLayout, and IsSpecialName are easier to use than type attributes.

If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this property returns the attributes of the generic type definition. For example, the attributes returned for MyGenericClass<int> (MyGenericClass(Of Integer) in Visual Basic) are the attributes of MyGenericClass<T> (MyGenericClass(Of T) in Visual Basic).

If the current Type represents a generic type parameter - that is, if the IsGenericParameter property returns true - the TypeAttributes value returned by this property is unspecified.
