MemberInfo.Name Property
Gets the name of this member.
[Visual Basic] Public MustOverride ReadOnly Property Name As String [C#] public abstract string Name {get;} [C++] public: __property virtual String* get_Name() = 0; [JScript] public abstract function get Name() : String;
Property Value
A String containing the name of this member.
Remarks
Only the simple name is returned, not the fully qualified name. For example, for a member System.Reflection.MemberTypes.Field, the Name property would be Field.
To get the Name property, get the class Type. From the Type, get the MemberInfo array. From a MemberInfo element of the array, obtain the Name property.
Example
This example lists the Name and DeclaringType property of each member of the specified class.
