Examples

The following example defines a custom attribute with four constructors and four properties. Two of the properties are read-only, and are set by using the positional parameters of the constructors. The other two properties are read/write, and can be set only by using named arguments. One positional property is an array of strings, and one named property is an array of integers.

The attribute is applied to the assembly, to a type declared in the assembly, to a method of the type, and to a parameter of the method. Different constructors are used for these cases. When executed, the assembly loads itself into the reflection-only context and displays information about the custom attributes that were applied to it and to the type and members it contains.

The attribute that is applied to the type demonstrates array properties, with both positional and named arguments.

Remarks

Code that is being examined in the reflection-only context cannot be executed, so it is not always possible to examine custom attributes by creating instances of them and then examining their properties, using methods like Attribute.GetCustomAttributes, MemberInfo.GetCustomAttributes, and so on. If the code for the attribute type itself is loaded into the reflection-only context, it cannot be executed.

The CustomAttributeNamedArgument structure is used by the CustomAttributeData class to provide access to a named argument specified for a custom attribute instance, without executing the code of the corresponding property of the custom attribute type. The TypedValue property returns a CustomAttributeTypedArgument structure that contains the type and value of the named argument.

Important

Whether an argument is named or positional, you must access its type and value by using the CustomAttributeTypedArgument structure.

To create instances of the CustomAttributeData class, use the static GetCustomAttributes factory method.

Constructors

CustomAttributeNamedArgument(MemberInfo, CustomAttributeTypedArgument)

Initializes a new instance of the CustomAttributeNamedArgument class, which represents the specified field or property of the custom attribute, and specifies a CustomAttributeTypedArgument object that describes the type and value of the field or property.
CustomAttributeNamedArgument(MemberInfo, Object)

Initializes a new instance of the CustomAttributeNamedArgument class, which represents the specified field or property of the custom attribute, and specifies the value of the field or property.

Properties

IsField

Gets a value that indicates whether the named argument is a field.
MemberInfo

Gets the attribute member that would be used to set the named argument.
MemberName

Gets the name of the attribute member that would be used to set the named argument.
TypedValue

Gets a CustomAttributeTypedArgument structure that can be used to obtain the type and value of the current named argument.

Methods

Equals(CustomAttributeNamedArgument)

Indicates whether the current instance is equal to another instance of the same type.
Equals(Object)

Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object.
GetHashCode()

Returns the hash code for this instance.
ToString()

Returns a string that consists of the argument name, the equal sign, and a string representation of the argument value.

Operators

Equality(CustomAttributeNamedArgument, CustomAttributeNamedArgument)

Tests whether two CustomAttributeNamedArgument structures are equivalent.
Inequality(CustomAttributeNamedArgument, CustomAttributeNamedArgument)

Tests whether two CustomAttributeNamedArgument structures are different.
