Properties

	Name	Description
	Attributes	Gets the attributes associated with this method.
	CallingConvention	Gets a value that indicates the calling conventions for this method.
	ContainsGenericParameters	Gets a value that indicates whether the generic method contains unassigned generic type parameters.
	DeclaringType	Gets the class that declares this member. (Inherited from MemberInfo.)
	IsAbstract	Gets a value that indicates whether the method is abstract (MustInherit in Visual Basic).
	IsAssembly	Gets a value that indicates whether the potential visibility of this method or constructor is described by MethodAttributes.Assembly; that is, the method or constructor is visible at most to other types in the same assembly, and is not visible to derived types outside the assembly.
	IsConstructor	Gets a value that indicates whether the method is a constructor.
	IsFamily	Gets a value that indicates whether the visibility of this method or constructor is described by MethodAttributes.Family; that is, the method or constructor is visible only within its class and derived classes.
	IsFamilyAndAssembly	Gets a value that indicates whether the visibility of this method or constructor is described by MethodAttributes.FamANDAssem; that is, the method or constructor can be called by derived classes, but only if they are in the same assembly.
	IsFamilyOrAssembly	Gets a value that indicates whether the potential visibility of this method or constructor is described by MethodAttributes.FamORAssem; that is, the method or constructor can be called by derived classes wherever they are, and by classes in the same assembly.
	IsFinal	Gets a value that indicates whether this method is final (NotOverridable in Visual Basic).
	IsGenericMethod	Gets a value that indicates whether the method is generic.
	IsGenericMethodDefinition	Gets a value that indicates whether the method is a generic method definition.
	IsHideBySig	Gets a value that indicates whether only a member of the same kind with exactly the same signature is hidden in the derived class.
	IsPrivate	Gets a value that indicates whether this member is private.
	IsPublic	Gets a value that indicates whether this is a public method.
	IsSpecialName	Gets a value that indicates whether this method has a special name.
	IsStatic	Gets a value that indicates whether the method is static (Shared in Visual Basic).
	IsVirtual	Gets a value that indicates whether the method is virtual (Overridable in Visual Basic).
	MemberType	When overridden in a derived class, gets a MemberTypes value indicating the type of the member — method, constructor, event, and so on. (Inherited from MemberInfo.)
	MetadataToken	Gets a value that identifies a metadata element. (Inherited from MemberInfo.)
	MethodHandle	Gets a handle to the internal metadata representation of a method.
	Module	Gets the module in which the type that declares the member represented by the current MemberInfo is defined. (Inherited from MemberInfo.)
	Name	Gets the name of the current member. (Inherited from MemberInfo.)
	ReflectedType	Gets the class object that was used to obtain this instance of MemberInfo. (Inherited from MemberInfo.)

Methods

	Name	Description
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetCurrentMethod	Returns a MethodBase object that represents the currently executing method.
	GetCustomAttributes(Boolean)	When overridden in a derived class, returns an array of all custom attributes applied to this member. (Inherited from MemberInfo.)
	GetCustomAttributes(Type, Boolean)	When overridden in a derived class, returns an array of custom attributes applied to this member and identified by Type. (Inherited from MemberInfo.)
	GetGenericArguments	Returns an array of Type objects that represent the type arguments of a generic method or the type parameters of a generic method definition.
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetMethodFromHandle(RuntimeMethodHandle)	Gets method information for the method that is represented by the specified handle.
	GetMethodFromHandle(RuntimeMethodHandle, RuntimeTypeHandle)	Gets the constructor or method represented by the specified handle, for the specified generic type.
	GetMethodImplementationFlags	When overridden in a derived class, returns the MethodImplAttributes flags.
	GetParameters	When overridden in a derived class, gets the parameters of this method or constructor.
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	Invoke(Object, Object[])	Invokes the method or constructor represented by the current instance, using the specified parameters.
	Invoke(Object, BindingFlags, Binder, Object[], CultureInfo)	When overridden in a derived class, invokes the reflected method or constructor with the given parameters.
	IsDefined	When overridden in a derived class, indicates whether one or more attributes of the specified type or of its derived types is applied to this member. (Inherited from MemberInfo.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
