Notes to Implementers
When you inherit from MethodBase
, you must override the following members: GetParameters(), Invoke(Object, BindingFlags, Binder, Object[], CultureInfo), GetMethodImplementationFlags(), MethodHandle, Attributes, Name, DeclaringType, MemberType, ReflectedType, GetCustomAttributes(Boolean), GetCustomAttributes(Type, Boolean), and IsDefined(Type, Boolean).
