Gets a value indicating whether the Type is nested and declared private.

Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
Public ReadOnly Property IsNestedPrivate As Boolean
public bool IsNestedPrivate { get; }
public:
virtual property bool IsNestedPrivate {
	bool get () sealed;
}
abstract IsNestedPrivate : bool
override IsNestedPrivate : bool

Property Value

Type: System..::.Boolean
true if the Type is nested and declared private; otherwise, false.

Implements

_Type..::.IsNestedPrivate
Remarks

If the current Type represents a type parameter of a generic type, this property always returns false.

TypeAttributes..::.VisibilityMask selects the visibility attributes.

Examples

The following example declares a nested class as private and displays the IsNestedPrivate property value of the nested class.


Imports System
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
' Outer class.
Public Class MyClassA
    ' Private nested class.
    Private Class MyClassB
    End Class 'MyClassB
    Public Shared Sub Main()
        ' Get the type of the nested class.
        Dim myTypeB As Type = GetType(MyClassA.MyClassB)
        ' Get the IsNestedPrivate property of the nested class.
        Console.WriteLine(ControlChars.Cr + "The IsNestedPrivate property value of the nested class is {0}.", myTypeB.IsNestedPrivate.ToString())
    End Sub 'Main
End Class 'MyClassA


using System;
// Outer class.
public class MyClassA
{
    // Private nested class.
    private class MyClassB
    {
    }
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {	
        // Get the type of the nested class.
        Type myTypeB = typeof(MyClassA.MyClassB);
        // Get the IsNestedPrivate property of the nested class.
        Console.WriteLine("\nThe IsNestedPrivate property value of the nested class is {0}.", myTypeB.IsNestedPrivate.ToString());	
    }
}


using namespace System;

// Outer class.
public ref class MyClassA
{
private:

   // Private nested class.
   ref class MyClassB{};


public:
   static void Test()
   {
      // Get the type of the nested class.
      Type^ myTypeB = MyClassA::MyClassB::typeid;

      // Get the IsNestedPrivate property of the nested class.
      Console::WriteLine( "\nThe IsNestedPrivate property value of the nested class is {0}.", myTypeB->IsNestedPrivate );
   }
};

int main()
{
   MyClassA::Test();
}
