Remarks

You can apply this attribute to methods or constructors.

This attribute lets you customize the configuration of the method or constructor to which it applies by supplying a MethodImplOptions value to its class constructor. The members of the MethodImplOptions enumeration correspond to bit fields in the CorMethodImpl metadata table. This means that information on the attribute cannot be retrieved at run time by calling the MemberInfo.GetCustomAttributes method; instead, it is retrieved by calling either the MethodInfo.GetMethodImplementationFlags or the ConstructorInfo.GetMethodImplementationFlags method.

Examples

The following example applies the MethodImplAttribute to the GetCalendarName method to ensure that it is not inlined at run time by the just-in-time (JIT) compiler.

Imports System.Globalization
Imports System.Runtime.CompilerServices

Public Class Utility
   <MethodImplAttribute(MethodImplOptions.NoInlining)>
   Public Shared Function GetCalendarName(ByVal cal As Calendar) As String
      Return cal.ToString().Replace("System.Globalization.", "").Replace("Calendar", "")
   End Function
End Class
using System;
using System.Globalization;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;

public class Utility
{
   [MethodImplAttribute(MethodImplOptions.NoInlining)]
   public static string GetCalendarName(Calendar cal)
   {
      return cal.ToString().Replace("System.Globalization.", "").
                 Replace("Calendar", "");
   }
}

The following example then calls the MethodInfo.GetMethodImplementationFlags method to determine which flags are set for the GetCalendarName method. It also demonstrates that this information is not retrieved by the MemberInfo.GetCustomAttributes method.

Imports System.Reflection

Module Example
   Public Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
      ' Use reflection to get a reference to the GetCalendarName method.
      Dim assem As Assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()
      Dim type As Type = assem.GetType("SilverlightApplication.Utility")
      Dim methodInfo As MethodInfo = type.GetMethod("GetCalendarName")

      ' Determine whether the method has any custom attributes.
      outputBlock.Text &= "Utility.GetCalendarName custom attributes:"
      Dim attribs() As Object = methodInfo.GetCustomAttributes(False)
      If attribs.Length > 0 Then
         outputBlock.Text &= vbCrLf
         For Each attrib As Object In attribs
            outputBlock.Text &= "   " + attrib.ToString() & vbCrLf
         Next
      Else
         outputBlock.Text &= "   <None>" & vbCrLf
      End If

      ' Get the method's metadata flags.
      Dim flags As MethodImplAttributes = methodInfo.GetMethodImplementationFlags()
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Utility.GetCalendarName flags: {0}", flags.ToString()) & vbCrLf
   End Sub
End Module
' The example displays the following output:
'     Utility.GetCalendarName custom attributes:   <None>
'     Utility.GetCalendarName flags: NoInlining
using System;
using System.Reflection;

public class Example
{
   public static void Demo(System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock outputBlock)
   {
      // Use reflection to get a reference to the GetCalendarName method.
      Assembly assem = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
      Type type = assem.GetType("Utility");
      MethodInfo methodInfo = type.GetMethod("GetCalendarName");

      // Determine whether the method has any custom attributes.
      outputBlock.Text += "Utility.GetCalendarName custom attributes:";
      object[] attribs = methodInfo.GetCustomAttributes(false);
      if (attribs.Length > 0)
      {
         outputBlock.Text += "\n";
         foreach (var attrib in attribs)
            outputBlock.Text += "   " + attrib.ToString() + "\n";

      }
      else
      {
         outputBlock.Text += "   <None>" + "\n";
      }

      // Get the method's metadata flags.
      MethodImplAttributes flags = methodInfo.GetMethodImplementationFlags();
      outputBlock.Text += String.Format("Utility.GetCalendarName flags: {0}",
                        flags.ToString()) + "\n";
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//     Utility.GetCalendarName custom attributes:   <None>
//     Utility.GetCalendarName flags: NoInlining
