public abstract string Namespace { get; }

Implements

A namespace is a logical design-time naming convenience, used mainly to define scope in an application and organize classes and other types in a single hierarchical structure. From the viewpoint of the runtime, there are no namespaces.

If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this property returns the namespace that contains the generic type definition. Similarly, if the current Type represents a generic parameter T, this property returns the namespace that contains the generic type definition that defines T.

If the current Type object represents a generic parameter, this property returns Nothing.

This following example demonstrates a use of the Namespace and Module properties and the ToString method of Type.

using System;
namespace MyNamespace
{
    class MyClass
    {
    }
}
public class Type_ToString_3
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        try
        {
            Type myType = typeof(MyNamespace.MyClass);
            Console.WriteLine("\nPrinting the details of {0}.\n", myType); 
            // Get the namespace of the class Type_ToString_3.
            Console.WriteLine("Namespace: {0}.", myType.Namespace);
            // Get the name of the module.
            Console.WriteLine("Module: {0}.", myType.Module);
            // Get the fully qualified common language runtime namespace.
            Console.WriteLine("Fully qualified type: {0}.", myType.ToString());
        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Exception: " + e.Message ); 
        }
    }
}
