| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | MemberInfo() | Initializes a new instance of the MemberInfo class. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | CustomAttributes | Gets a collection that contains this member's custom attributes. |
![]() | DeclaringType | Gets the class that declares this member. |
![]() | MemberType | When overridden in a derived class, gets a MemberTypes value indicating the type of the member — method, constructor, event, and so on. |
![]() | MetadataToken | Gets a value that identifies a metadata element. |
![]() | Module | Gets the module in which the type that declares the member represented by the current MemberInfo is defined. |
![]() | Name | Gets the name of the current member. |
![]() | ReflectedType | Gets the class object that was used to obtain this instance of MemberInfo. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Equals(Object) | Returns a value that indicates whether this instance is equal to a specified object.(Overrides Object.Equals(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.) |
![]() | GetCustomAttributes(Boolean) | When overridden in a derived class, returns an array of all custom attributes applied to this member. |
![]() | GetCustomAttributes(Type, Boolean) | When overridden in a derived class, returns an array of custom attributes applied to this member and identified by Type. |
![]() | GetCustomAttributesData() | Returns a list of CustomAttributeData objects representing data about the attributes that have been applied to the target member. |
![]() | GetHashCode() | Returns the hash code for this instance.(Overrides Object.GetHashCode().) |
![]() | GetType() | |
![]() | IsDefined(Type, Boolean) | 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. |
![]() | MemberwiseClone() | |
![]() | ToString() | Returns a string that represents the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | Equality(MemberInfo, MemberInfo) | Indicates whether two MemberInfo objects are equal. |
![]() ![]() | Inequality(MemberInfo, MemberInfo) | Indicates whether two MemberInfo objects are not equal. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | _MemberInfo.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr) | Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers. |
![]() ![]() | _MemberInfo.GetType() | Gets a Type object representing the MemberInfo class. |
![]() ![]() | _MemberInfo.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr) | Retrieves the type information for an object, which can then be used to get the type information for an interface. |
![]() ![]() | _MemberInfo.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32) | Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1). |
![]() ![]() | _MemberInfo.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr) | Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object. |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | GetCustomAttribute(Type) | Overloaded. Retrieves a custom attribute of a specified type that is applied to a specified member.(Defined by CustomAttributeExtensions.) |
![]() | GetCustomAttribute(Type, Boolean) | Overloaded. Retrieves a custom attribute of a specified type that is applied to a specified member, and optionally inspects the ancestors of that member.(Defined by CustomAttributeExtensions.) |
![]() | GetCustomAttribute<'T>() | Overloaded. Retrieves a custom attribute of a specified type that is applied to a specified member.(Defined by CustomAttributeExtensions.) |
![]() | GetCustomAttribute<'T>(Boolean) | Overloaded. Retrieves a custom attribute of a specified type that is applied to a specified member, and optionally inspects the ancestors of that member.(Defined by CustomAttributeExtensions.) |
![]() | GetCustomAttributes() | Overloaded. Retrieves a collection of custom attributes that are applied to a specified member.(Defined by CustomAttributeExtensions.) |
![]() | GetCustomAttributes(Type) | Overloaded. Retrieves a collection of custom attributes of a specified type that are applied to a specified member.(Defined by CustomAttributeExtensions.) |
![]() | GetCustomAttributes<'T>(Boolean) | Overloaded. Retrieves a collection of custom attributes of a specified type that are applied to a specified member, and optionally inspects the ancestors of that member.(Defined by CustomAttributeExtensions.) |
![]() | IsDefined(Type) | Overloaded. Indicates whether custom attributes of a specified type are applied to a specified member.(Defined by CustomAttributeExtensions.) |
The MemberInfo class is the abstract base class for classes used to obtain information about all members of a class (constructors, events, fields, methods, and properties).
This class introduces the basic functionality that all members provide.
Notes to Inheritors:
When you inherit from MemberInfo you must override the following members: GetCustomAttributes and IsDefined.
for full trust for inheritors. This class cannot be inherited by partially trusted code.
