Namespace:   System

public:
property MemberTypes MemberType {
	virtual MemberTypes get() override;
}

Property Value

Type: System.Reflection::MemberTypes

A MemberTypes value indicating that this member is a type or a nested type.

Implements

_Type::MemberType _MemberInfo::MemberType

This property overrides MemberInfo::MemberType. Therefore, when you examine a set of MemberInfo objects—for example, the array returned by GetMembers—the MemberType property returns MemberTypes::NestedType when a given member is a nested type.

If the current Type represents a constructed generic type, this property applies to the generic type definition from which the type was constructed. For example, if the current Type represents MyGenericType<int> (MyGenericType(Of Integer) in Visual Basic), the value of this property is determined by MyGenericType<T>.

If the current Type represents a type parameter in the definition of a generic type or generic method, this property always returnsMemberTypes::TypeInfo.

The following code example shows the MemberType field as a parameter to the GetMember method:

C#
C++
VB
Copy 
array<MemberInfo^>^ others = t->GetMember( mi->Name, mi->MemberType,
   (BindingFlags)(BindingFlags::Public | BindingFlags::Static |
      BindingFlags::NonPublic | BindingFlags::Instance) );
