EventInfo.GetAddMethod Method (Boolean)

.NET Framework 4

Other Versions

When overridden in a derived class, retrieves the MethodInfo object for the AddEventHandler method of the event, specifying whether to return non-public methods.

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

Syntax

C++

public abstract MethodInfo GetAddMethod(
	bool nonPublic
)

Parameters

nonPublic: Type: System.Boolean
true if non-public methods can be returned; otherwise, false.

Return Value

Type: System.Reflection.MethodInfo
A MethodInfo object representing the method used to add an event handler delegate to the event source.

Implements

_EventInfo.GetAddMethod(Boolean)

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
MethodAccessException	nonPublic is true, the method used to add an event handler delegate is non-public, and the caller does not have permission to reflect on non-public methods.

Remarks

The GetAddMethod initializes and adds the event subscribe method as a Boolean value. The AddEventHandler method is used to add an event-handler delegate to the invocation list of an event source.

Examples

Typically, the method has the following signature:

add_<EventName>(<EventHandlerType> handler)
