ParameterAttributes Enumeration

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Defines the attributes that can be associated with a parameter. These are defined in CorHdr.h.

This enumeration has a FlagsAttribute attribute that allows a bitwise combination of its member values.

Namespace:  System.Reflection
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Remarks

To get the ParameterAttributes value, first get the Type. From the Type, get the ParameterInfo array. The ParameterAttributes value is within the array.

These enumerator values are dependent on optional metadata. Not all attributes are available from all compilers. See the appropriate compiler instructions to determine which enumerated values are available.

Examples

The following example displays the attributes of four parameters.

Imports System.Reflection
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Class Example

   Public Shared Sub mymethod(ByVal str1 As String, ByRef str2 As String, _
      <Out> ByRef str3 As String, <InAttribute> ByVal str4 As String)

      ' Add str1 to str2, which is ByRef.
      str2 &= str1
      ' When mymethod is called, str3 has no value. Give it one.
      str3 = "new value"
   End Sub

   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock) 

      ' Get the method.
      Dim mm As MethodInfo = GetType(Example).GetMethod("mymethod")

      ' Display the method.
      outputBlock.Text &= "MethodInfo.ToString(): " & mm.ToString() & vbCrLf

      For Each param In mm.GetParameters()

         outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("Attributes for parameter {0}, ""{1}"": {2} ({3})", _ 
            param.Position, param.Name, param.Attributes, CInt(param.Attributes))

         If param.ParameterType.IsByRef Then
            outputBlock.Text &= "; the parameter type is ByRef" & vbLf
         Else
            outputBlock.Text &= vbLf
         End If
      Next
   End Sub
