DynamicMethod.IsSecurityTransparent Property

Definition

Gets a value that indicates whether the current dynamic method is transparent at the current trust level, and therefore cannot perform critical operations.

public:
 virtual property bool IsSecurityTransparent { bool get(); };
public override bool IsSecurityTransparent { get; }
member this.IsSecurityTransparent : bool
Public Overrides ReadOnly Property IsSecurityTransparent As Boolean

Property Value

true if the dynamic method is security-transparent at the current trust level; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

The dynamic method doesn't have a method body.

Remarks

The IsSecurityCritical, IsSecuritySafeCritical, and IsSecurityTransparent properties report the transparency level of the dynamic method as determined by the common language runtime (CLR). The combinations of these properties are shown in the following table:

Security level IsSecurityCritical IsSecuritySafeCritical IsSecurityTransparent
Critical true false false
Safe critical true true false
Transparent false false true

Using these properties is much simpler than examining the security annotations of an assembly and its types, checking the current trust level, and attempting to duplicate the runtime's rules.

The transparency of a dynamic method depends on the module it is associated with. If the dynamic method is associated with a type rather than a module, its transparency depends on the module that contains the type. Dynamic methods do not have security annotations, so they are assigned the default transparency for the associated module.

  • Anonymously hosted dynamic methods are always transparent, because the system-provided module that contains them is transparent.

  • The transparency of a dynamic method that is associated with a trusted assembly (that is, a strong-named assembly that is installed in the global assembly cache) is described in the following table.

    Assembly annotation Level 1 transparency Level 2 transparency
    Fully transparent Transparent Transparent
    Fully critical Critical Critical
    Mixed transparency Transparent Transparent
    Security-agnostic Safe-critical Critical

    For example, if you associate a dynamic method with a type that is in mscorlib.dll, which has level 2 mixed transparency, the dynamic method is transparent and cannot execute critical code. For information about transparency levels, see Security-Transparent Code, Level 1 and Security-Transparent Code, Level 2.

    Note

    Associating a dynamic method with a module in a trusted level 1 assembly that is security-agnostic, such as System.dll, does not permit elevation of trust. If the grant set of the code that calls the dynamic method does not include the grant set of System.dll (that is, full trust), SecurityException is thrown when the dynamic method is called.

  • The transparency of a dynamic method that is associated with a partially trusted assembly depends on how the assembly is loaded. If the assembly is loaded with partial trust (for example, into a sandboxed application domain), the runtime ignores the security annotations of the assembly. The assembly and all its types and members, including dynamic methods, are treated as transparent. The runtime pays attention to security annotations only if the partial-trust assembly is loaded with full trust (for example, into the default application domain of a desktop application). In that case, the runtime assigns the dynamic method the default transparency for methods according to the assembly's annotations.
