Constructors

	Name	Description
	CodeTypeParameter()	Initializes a new instance of the CodeTypeParameter class.
	CodeTypeParameter(String^)	Initializes a new instance of the CodeTypeParameter class with the specified type parameter name.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Constraints	Gets the constraints for the type parameter.
	CustomAttributes	Gets the custom attributes of the type parameter.
	HasConstructorConstraint	Gets or sets a value indicating whether the type parameter has a constructor constraint.
	Name	Gets or sets the name of the type parameter.
	UserData	Gets the user-definable data for the current object.(Inherited from CodeObject.)

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 it is reclaimed by garbage collection.(Inherited from Object.)
	GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

The CodeTypeParameter class represents a type parameter in the declaration of a generic type or method.

A generic type or method declaration contains one or more unspecified types known as type parameters. A type parameter name stands for the type within the body of the generic declaration. For example, the generic declaration for the List<T> class contains the type parameter T.

For more information on generics, see Generics in the .NET Framework Class Library (C# Programming Guide).

Examples

The following code example shows the use of the CodeTypeParameter class to create a CodeDOM graph to generate an application containing generics code.
